This Grade II listed three-bedroom cottage sits within easy walking distance of Letchworth town centre and the train station, an ideal spot for families who value convenience and character. Original period details — including herringbone parquet flooring and open fireplaces — combine with a recently refitted kitchen/breakfast room that has underfloor heating and integrated appliances.
The house is compact at about 766 sq ft and arranged in a traditional layout over two floors. The ground floor offers a sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility space and a bathroom with skylight; upstairs are two double bedrooms and a good-sized single. A west-facing rear garden with paved and decked areas leads to a powered summer house/home office, useful for remote working.
Practical benefits include off-street parking to the front, mains gas boiler and fast broadband/mobile signal. The plot is described as decent for the size and council tax is affordable, making running costs manageable for many buyers.
Important considerations: listed status will restrict alterations and may add cost and complexity to renovations. The property is a mid-terrace solid brick building (no cavity insulation assumed), so upgrading thermal performance could be needed. The house is relatively small with a single bathroom, which may be limiting for larger families. The local area shows higher deprivation and a majority private-renting demographic, though nearby schools have strong Ofsted ratings.
