Description
The Property - This interesting semi dates from the early days of the Garden City, but was not part of the project, being one of a group of cottages built for the railway workers serving the town. Unlike the majority of Garden City properties, which are roughcast rendered externally, these railway cottages are built of cavity brickwork under a pitched tiled roof.
The cottage retains much of its original charm and character, whilst it has been well updated and improved. To the left of the entrance hall are open-plan dining room and kitchen with a separate sitting room overlooking the rear garden. A cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor. The first floor provides three bedrooms and a stylishly re-fitted shower room.
The house benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and central heating is supplied by a recently installed gas fired condensing combi boiler.
The Outside - The house is screened from the road by a laurel hedge and stands in a plot measuring about 97' by 33' (29.77m x 10m) overall. The block-paved forecourt provides off-street parking. An area of artificial lawn and a herbaceous border, well stocked with ornamental shrubs, complete the front garden.
A shared side-way leads to the rear garden which is some 58' in length and laid to lawn with brick paved patio. There is a useful store/workshop/utility.
The Location - The house is very conveniently located just a third of a mile from the mainline railway station and town centre. Morrison's supermarket is within a quarter of a mile. Letchworth Garden City is on the Cambridge to London mainline with regular serviced running throughout the day. The fastest service to London King's Cross taking just 29 minutes and Cambridge 27 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is 2.2 miles away by car.
Designed in the early 20th Century to combine the benefits of town and country, Letchworth Garden City was the world’s first example of this concept and succeeds to this day in achieving its aim. The town provides excellent schools, shops, green open spaces and leisure facilities.
Tenure - LEASEHOLD: 999 years from 1979 with 953 years remaining. Peppercorn Ground Rent.
