SPACIOUS GROUND FLOOR APARTMENT WITH ALLOCATED OFF-STREET PARKING
The Property - This spacious purpose-built ground floor apartment was built in 2008 in the grounds of a former school, which was converted to residential use at the same time. The two-storey block has a communal entrance linked to each apartment by a secure entry-phone system. The master bedroom boasts an en suite shower room.
The apartment block is of insulated cavity brick construction, rendered externally with a pitched tiled roof. The apartment benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and its own individual gas fired central heating system.
The Outside - The grounds in which Principal Court is set extend to over two and a half acres, with the block containing No 2 set in neatly manicured lawns of around a quarter of an acre and screened by a hedge.
The apartment has its own allocated parking space (No 7) in the adjoining parking area and there is additional parking for visitors.
The Location - Set off Norton Road, Principal Court lies less than a mile to the north-east of the town centre and only a mile from Letchworth Garden City mainline railway station. The fastest service to London Kings Cross takes just 29 minutes and Cambridge is 27 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is only 2.4 miles away by car with Junction 10 being 2.9 miles distant.
