8 Eastholm Green, Letchworth Garden City

THE PROPERTY
A rare opportunity to acquire an original Garden City Exhibition cottage, dating from 1905 and thoughtfully extended and improved over the years. Retaining an abundance of character and charm, the property beautifully combines period appeal with practical modern living, while a number of original features remain, including attractive fireplaces. The home occupies an enviable position on the north-east side of town, enjoying a pleasant outlook over a mature, tree-lined green extending to approximately one acre.

Internally, the ground floor offers excellent flexibility, benefiting from a recent new boiler and heat pump dryer, with three well-proportioned reception rooms comprising a welcoming lounge, family room and dedicated study. A kitchen/dining room provides a sociable hub for everyday life and entertaining, complemented by a useful ground-floor shower room. The accommodation is equally impressive upstairs, where four bedrooms are served by a principal family bathroom, offering plenty of space for growing families, guests or home working.

Outside, the established rear garden extends to approximately 110ft, featuring a paved patio and a good variety of mature planting, creating a private and attractive setting. At the head of the garden is a substantial double garage, complete with useful loft space above, providing excellent storage or potential for further use, subject to any necessary consents.

Access to the driveway and garage is conveniently provided from Eastholm, while the front of the property offers additional parking. Combining period character, generous accommodation, a superb garden and excellent outdoor storage, this charming home represents a particularly appealing opportunity in a sought-after Garden City setting.
