Description
A two bedroom house with period features and communal gardens, in the Sollershott Hall development. Sollershott Hall was originally called Homesgarth. When it was first built in 1909 it offered communal living, with apartments sharing dining and laundry facilities. One notable early resident was Letchworth's founder, Ebenezer Howard.
It has over 1,100 sq. ft. of accommodation over two floors.
On the ground floor there is an entrance hall with understairs storage, a sitting room, and a dining room which is open plan to the kitchen. The first floor has two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
There are landscaped communal grounds, residents' permit parking and visitor parking. The property owns a share of the freehold and we have been advised that the monthly maintenance and service charge is £363.
Accommodation The sitting and dining rooms have stripped pine flooring and open fires with cast iron surrounds. The newly fitted shaker style kitchen has a range of two tone fitted cabinets and solid oak worktops with tiled splashbacks. There is a butler sink, an integrated dishwasher, oven and hob and a combination boiler. On the first floor landing there is a utility cupboard with power and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The bedrooms have large windows for natural light, open fireplaces, and white painted pine floorboards.
Situation and Schooling Letchworth was the World's first 'Garden City', which was planned to combine the best of both town and country living. The area has a variety of well-regarded local schools, along with a range of amenities, in both the town centre and nearby Hitchin, and is conveniently located for rail and motorway links. The house is less than a mile from the town centre and the mainline station.
