The Property - This attractive older style bay-fronted semi dates from 1937, has been well updated and extended and offers considerable scope for further expansion, subject to any necessary planning consents. The ground floor extension has created a very pleasant kitchen with dining or family area, enjoys an attractive outlook over the rear garden, and has freed up the original kitchen to become a laundry and utility room. Both the dining/family room and the sitting room retain attractive fireplaces.

The three bedrooms are served by a well-appointed bathroom with corner bath and separate shower cubicle.

The house benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired central heating.

The Outside - The house is set in a fine plot which, being positioned on the outside of a curve, widens gradually to the rear. The plot measures approximately 145‘ by 38‘ (44.3m x 11.6m) overall. The front garden is designed for easy maintenance being laid to shingle with raided borders well stocked with ornamental shrubs and conifers. The concrete driveway provides off-street parking for two or three cars and leads via double gates to the detached garage, with powered up-and-over door, to the rear.

The rear, which is some 100‘ (30.4m) in length, is a particular feature of the property being very attractively laid out with a split-level terrace adjoining the house, ornamental shrubs and olive trees, steps down to the lawn, herbaceous beds and borders and trees. A shingle pathway leads to a hedge across the garden; pass through the gate in this hedge and you enter a secret garden at the rear of the plot with an area of decking and numerous ornamental shrubs and conifers. There is a timber shed in both areas of the garden and the whole backs on to open meadows and an area of allotments, the western outlier of Norton Common.

The Location - Redhoods Way East is a highly regarded established residential road and No 20 is conveniently located less than half a mile from the town centre and mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on the Cambridge to London King‘s Cross mainline and the fastest service to London King‘s Cross takes just 28 minutes and Cambridge is 26 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is 2.4 miles 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 continues to provide attractive landscaped open spaces and large green areas such as the 63 acre Norton Common, which lies just to the east of the property, as well as excellent schools, shops and leisure facilities.
