Property Insight
Finished to an impressive standard throughout and ready to move straight into, this 3/4-bedroom semi-detached family home offers around 1,200 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation in a popular part of Royston, within walking distance of the town centre and railway station. The standout is a superb rear extension that opens the back of the house into a bright, open-plan kitchen, living and dining space, flowing out under a glazed veranda to the garden beyond. Accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a study, a play room, a cloakroom WC, a separate utility room, the open-plan kitchen/family/dining room, three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom, with driveway parking to the front and an enclosed rear garden.

On approach, the property has a tidy, well-kept frontage with a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking, and a smart composite front door opening into the entrance hall. The hall has stairs rising to the first floor, wood-effect Karndean flooring that runs from the front of the house through to the utility, and doors to the living accommodation, including the study, the play room and the cloakroom WC, which is finished with charcoal tiling.

To the front of the house are two flexible ground-floor rooms that can be used to suit how you live. The study is a comfortable dual-aspect room, ideal as a home office, snug or a fourth bedroom if needed, while the play room is a generous space that could equally serve as a further reception room or bedroom. Plantation shutters feature throughout, adding a clean, considered finish.

The rear extension is the heart of the home and a real showpiece. The open-plan kitchen, family and dining room is flooded with light from skylights and a full-width run of bi-fold doors, with a glazed veranda extending the living space out over the decking. The kitchen is finished to a high specification, with shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, a large central island, a range cooker, integrated Miele appliances and an American-style fridge/freezer, along with a feature fireplace and ample space for both a large dining table and relaxed family seating. A separate utility room provides further storage, space for laundry appliances and a sink, and there is a ground-floor cloakroom WC.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the added benefit of air conditioning to all three bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a good double with a stylish panelled feature wall, the second bedroom is a further double, and the third is a well-proportioned single, ideal as a nursery, child's room or home office. The family bathroom comprises a bath, a separate WC, a hand wash basin, fully tiled walls and attractive patterned floor tiling.

Outside, the rear garden is enclosed and laid mainly to lawn, with a large decked terrace beneath the glazed veranda providing a sheltered spot for outdoor seating and dining whatever the weather. A striking living wall adds greenery to the patio, and beyond the lawn there is a shed and a children's play area with climbing frame, swing and slide. It's a lovely family garden with plenty of room to relax and play.

Location - Royston
Royston is a traditional English town, located within Hertfordshire and on the border of Cambridgeshire, just 14 miles from the city of Cambridge. Royston has a wealth of rich heritage, grown from the crossing of two ancient thoroughfares-Roman and prehistoric-and has attracted many great names, including many Royal family members.

The town enjoys numerous green open spaces, including the renowned Therfield Heath nature reserve, and lies on the northern slopes of the Hertfordshire Chalk Downs. Royston even has its own cave, revealed back in the 18th Century, carved out of chalk and located under the crossroads in the centre of town.

On the outskirts of the town, there is a larger group of supermarkets, and within the town centre, there is a wide variety of cafes, restaurants, bars and public houses, offering a diverse mix of food and drink, as well as a market and a high street full of bustling shops, including post offices, convenience stores, hairdressers, and clothing boutiques. Residents have access to a range of doctor’s surgeries, dentists, schools, and a leisure centre, providing a fully stocked gym and fitness classes. Whether you are young or old, single, a couple or a family, Royston has all the facilities you may need, and there are even lots of clubs and activities to join, such as tennis, rugby, hockey and golf.

As well as people moving up and down the property ladder locally, Royston is a very affluent area and is becoming more and more popular with the commuter market. There is great security in that house prices have held well through turbulent markets and thrived above the national average in more settled general economic and market conditions.
