Outstanding early Garden City Semi Detached home • Beautifully presented • Prime town centre location • Off-street parking • Corner plot

The Property - This exceptionally fine example of the early Garden City style was designed in 1909 by the architectural partnership of Underwood & Kent and built in 1911, at which time it was known as 'Melverley'. It has been very well updated and improved without in any way detracting from its original charm and character and now provides a delightful family home.

The ground floor includes two good reception rooms, a modern open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, utility room and a cloakroom/WC with space and plumbing for an additional shower, if required. There are three double bedrooms, one with an en suite, plus a family bathroom with both shower and bath, on the first floor.

The semi is of solid brick construction, part roughcast rendered and timbered externally, under a pitched tile roof and benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired central heating.

The Outside - The house is set in a corner plot measuring approximately 100' by 55' (30.5m x 16.17m) overall, The front garden is screened by hedges and laid to lawn with herbaceous beds and ornamental shrubs and trees. To the side is a shingle forecourt accessed from Gernon Walk and providing good off-street parking.

The rear garden is some 37' in depth and wraps around to the side of the house. The garden is laid to lawn with block paved paths and paved patios, herbaceous borders, raised bed, ornamental shrubs and holly tree. Timber garden shed and timber summerhouse, currently used as a gym.

The Location - The house is very conveniently located, a mere 200 yards to the south of the town centre and within a third of a mile of the mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on London to Cambridge mainline with the fastest service to King's Cross taking only 29 minutes with Cambridge 28 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is a mile and a half away by car.

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. It provides excellent schools, shops, leisure facilities and green open spaces.
