Set on around half an acre in a highly sought Letchworth road, this detached five-bedroom house balances period character with recent high-spec updates. The large open-plan kitchen/orangery with bi-fold doors, underfloor heating and integrated appliances creates a sociable heart for family life, while a separate lounge and dining room/office provide flexible living and work spaces. The plot includes a full-size tennis court, mature garden, timber outbuilding with power, and off-street parking for four cars with an electric car charger.
Accommodation spans three floors and includes three bathrooms, a guest house with its own shower room and kitchenette, and several rooms with built-in storage. The house has modern comforts such as combi boiler heating, electric underfloor heating in key areas, double glazing fitted after 2002, and partial modernisation throughout — useful for multi-generational living or home working. The property is chain free and freehold, close to good schools, town centre amenities and mainline rail links to London.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the property’s solid brick walls date from the 1950s–1960s and appear without added cavity insulation, so purchasers should expect potential energy-efficiency improvements and associated costs. Council tax is described as expensive. Buyers should verify the working order of all services, fixtures and fittings, and confirm boundaries and maintenance responsibilities for the tennis court and guest house.
This house will suit buyers wanting generous indoor/outdoor space, sport and entertaining facilities, and scope to enhance energy performance and personalise finishes. For families seeking excellent local schools, easy commuter links and a rare large plot close to the town centre, this property offers immediate lifestyle value with clear renovation and running-cost considerations.
