The Location - Letchworth was one of the three ancient villages absorbed into the Garden City and the property forms part of a crescent of just six houses in this secluded close adjoining the original parish church of St Mary, which dates back to the 12th Century. On the south side of the town, St Mary's Close is a mile and a quarter from the town centre and mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on the Cambridge to London mainline with the fastest service to London King's Cross taking just 29 minutes and Cambridge is also 29 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is 1.3 miles 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.
