THE LOCATION
Newlands is a tree-lined residential road off Willian Way on the sought-after south side of the town. The property is just a mile from the town centre and within a mile and a quarter of the 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 to Cambridge is 26 minutes in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is a mile and a half drive away.
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. The town provides excellent schools, shops, green open spaces and other leisure facilities. The house is very well located for easy access to schools, including the Lordship Farm Primary School, St Christopher School, St Francis' College (each about a third of a mile) and St Francis' College (less than a mile).
