Property description

An Edwardian four bedroom early Garden City house set on an approximately 0.40 acres plot with an established rear garden with converted stables, a garage, a gated driveway and parking for up to ten cars.

This Letchworth Garden City property, with its Arts & Crafts styling, was built around 1907. It was later extended and now has over 1,800 sq. ft. of accommodation over two floors. The ground floor has underfloor heating, and a tiled entrance hall which leads to a study, sitting room and the open plan kitchen/dining room. There is also a utility room, a boot room with shower, and a cloakroom. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room and dressing room, and a main bathroom. At the front of the property there is off street parking for up to ten cars, and double gates leading to the rear garden where there is a single garage and converted stables.

Ground Floor Highlights

The kitchen/dining room has a range of wall and base units, and a central island with Quartz work surfaces and upstands. There are triple ovens with a microwave, an induction hob, and integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The dining area has built-in table, a feature wall and recessed ceiling lights. Bi-fold doors from both kitchen and dining areas lead out to the garden. The sitting room has an open fireplace, a bay window to the front and a pocket door to the boot room.

First Floor Highlights

The principal bedroom suite has high ceilings and a bay window to the front. There is a dressing room and an en suite shower room with a double shower cubicle, a low level WC, and a wash basin set in a vanity unit. The landing leads to a further three double bedrooms, all with the same high ceilings typical of the era, and two of which have built-in wardrobes. All three share the newly fitted four piece bathroom.

Garden and Outbuildings

The rear garden has been landscaped with several seating and entertaining areas including a patio accessed from the kitchen/dining room which has a bar and an outdoor BBQ kitchen on one side and a fitted seating area and raised sunbathing deck with hot-tub on the other. At the bottom of the garden is a further patio which captures the evening sun. The original stables have been converted to create a garden room/office and a separate gym with sauna and changing room. There is a single garage and a dry storage room as well as a greenhouse and two further timber sheds.

Situation and Schooling

Letchworth was the world’s first ‘Garden City’ which was designed to combine the best of both town and country living. The property is within easy reach of Norton Village, the Common and the open air swimming pool, and is only a mile from the town centre, which has a range of amenities, and the mainline station. The area has a variety of well-regarded local schools, including St Christopher’s School and St Francis College for Girls. Further amenities in Hitchin are 5 miles away.
