This attractive traditional Garden City town cottage provides well-proportioned accommodation with two good bedrooms and a modern bathroom on the first floor. The ground floor comprises a pleasantly spacious sitting room and a kitchen/dining room running across the full width at the rear.
The house is constructed of solid brickwork, roughcast rendered externally, under a tiled roof and benefits from double-glazed windows, most in uPVC frames, some aluminium, and gas fired central heating.
The Outside - The house sits on a generous plot with a picket fence to the front and gardens to front, side and rear laid mainly to lawns with herbaceous borders, a vegetable/soft fruit/herb bed and ornamental shrubs, trees and conifer. A concrete driveway provides good off-street parking and leads to the detached single garage. Aluminium framed greenhouse and "sentry-box" timber garden shed.
The side garden is some 33' (10m) in width and the rear garden has a depth of approximately 41' (12.5m).
A pedestrian right-of-way to the rear gardens of Nos 177 & 179 crosses the property.
The Location - 181 Glebe Road is very conveniently located within the Letchworth Conservation Area just to the north-east of the town centre, close to the attractive open spaces of Norton Common and only a mile from the mainline railway station.
