Penn Way, Letchworth Garden City

Extended modern family home • Spacious accommodation • Beautiful gardens • Attached double garage plus off-street parking on drive • Very popular location

THE PROPERTY
This modern detached house dates from 1970 and has been well extended to form a fine, spacious family home with versatile accommodation. The property provides considerable scope for improvement as it would benefit from some updating and similar properties have been further extended on the first floor above the garage (subject to any necessary planning consents).

The already generous accommodation includes large sitting and dining rooms, breakfast room, kitchen, utility room, cloakroom/WC and attached double garage on the ground floor. The first floor provides four bedrooms with an en suite shower room to the master and a family bathroom.

The house is constructed of cavity brickwork under a tiled roof and benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired warm air central heating. Hot water is provided by a gas fired multipoint boiler in the garage and there is a gas fired space heater in the breakfast room.

AGENT'S NOTE: The property was partially underpinned in 1991. No further movement has been observed since then and full paperwork relating to this work is available.

THE OUTSIDE
The house is set in a plot measuring approximately 147' by 50' (44.79m x 15.2m) overall. The front garden is laid to lawn with herbaceous beds and borders and ornamental shrubs and conifers. The herringbone brick-paved driveway provides good off-street parking and leads to the attached double garage with power-operated up-and-over door.

A gate to the side leads to a beautiful and private rear garden, which is some 56' (17.2m) in depth and laid to lawn with paved patio, herbaceous beds and borders, wisteria, silver birch tree and ornamental shrubs and conifers. Timber garden shed and summerhouse.

THE LOCATION
Penn Way is located in the popular Lordship area on the south side of the town and No 63 is around a mile-and-a-half from the town centre and mainline railway station.

The fastest service to London King's Cross takes just 29 minutes and Cambridge is 28 minutes away in the other direction. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is just over a mile 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.
