This centrally located early Garden City detached house is need of considerable TLC, but offers enormous potential • Good plot with 69’ long south facing rear garden • Off-street parking and garage • Only a third of a mile from the mainline railway station • Exterior imagery only at this stage.

The Property - The absence of interior photography is intentional and reflects the scale of modernisation required. What awaits is a fine early Garden City detached house, offering considerable reward to those willing to reimagine it. The property is presented as a comprehensive refurbishment opportunity and is therefore marketed with exterior imagery only at this stage.

A particular rarity in Letchworth, the house proudly displays its attractive original brickwork rather than the more common roughcast render. It retains much of its period character, complemented by an extended kitchen and the addition of a garden room to the two original reception rooms. A cloakroom/WC completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a bathroom, while gas-fired central heating serves the property.

The Outside - The house stands in a plot measuring approximately 131' by 44'6" (39.9m x 13.6m) overall. The driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the attached garage.

The gardens also offer a largely blank canvass for the prospective owner, with some ornamental trees to the front and a south facing garden to the rear with a depth of some 69' (21m).

The Location - The house enjoys a desirably central location on the southern edge of the town centre and just a third of a mile from the mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on the London to Cambridge mainline with regular services running throughout the day. The fastest journeys to London King's Cross taking just 29 minutes, as do the fastest services to Cambridge. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is only a mile and a half's drive away.

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 other leisure facilities.
