Description

Traditional bay fronted semi Potential for further updating Fine location close to Norton Common

The Property - This traditional bay-fronted inter-War semi provides well proportioned three bedroom accommodation. The original two reception rooms are complemented by a conservatory extension to the dining room.

The house affords considerable scope for further updating and improvement, although it benefits from a good modern first floor shower room, gas fired central heating and double-glazed windows.

The Outside - The house stands in a plot measuring some 149‘ by 29‘7' (45.47m x 9.03m) overall, which is owned freehold. An additional area at the rear measuring some 80‘ by 16‘10' (24.5m x 5.15m) is held on a lease from the Heritage Foundation with 67 years remaining. There is no annual rent and it is understood that this lease is transferable to the purchaser.

The fenced front garden mainly comprises a well stocked shrub bed. The brick paved drive provides off-street parking and leads via double gates to the garage to the rear.

The south facing rear garden is some 86‘6' (26.37m) in length, increasing to about 167‘ (50.87m) when the additional area of garden is included. The garden is laid to lawn with a walled and paved patio, herbaceous borders, fruit trees and ornamental palm, shrubs and trees. Two aluminium framed greenhouses.

The Location - The house stands at the western end of Norton Road, a highly regarded residential road on the northern side of the town, close to the 63-acre Norton Common and three-quarters of a mile from the town centre and mainline railway station. Letchworth Garden City is on the London to Cambridge mainline and regular services run throughout the day. The fastest services to London King‘s Cross take just 29 minutes and the swiftest to Cambridge takes 26 minutes. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is 2.3 miles away by car and Junction 10 is a 3 mile drive.

Designed in the early 20th Century to combine the benefits of town and country, Letchworth Garden City was the worlds first example of this concept and succeeds to this day in achieving its aim. The town provides excellent schools, shops, leisure facilities and green open spaces, of which the splendid Norton Common is only the most impressive and within 200 yards.
