About
Property Insight Set at the end of a terrace in one of Royston's established residential pockets, this four-bedroom home pairs generous, flexible accommodation with a leafy outlook and a low-maintenance plot.
Extending to approximately 1,054 sq ft including an integral garage, it sits within walking distance of the mainline station and the town centre, making it well suited to commuters and growing families alike.
The property is offered with the clear advantages of no upward chain and freehold tenure.
It makes a strong proposition at this level, with space to settle into straight away and room to put a personal stamp on over time.
The heart of the home is a bright open-plan lounge and dining room running the depth of the ground floor, with wood flooring underfoot, a striking pitched ceiling that lends real volume, and French doors opening directly to the garden.
There is comfortable room for both a full seating arrangement and a dining table, making it a natural space for family life and entertaining.
The kitchen is fitted with white high-gloss units and timber block worktops, set against a white metro-tiled splashback and dark slate-effect flooring, with a breakfast bar for casual meals and space for freestanding appliances including an American-style fridge freezer.
An integral garage sits off the ground floor, offering storage or scope to reconfigure. Upstairs, the property offers four double bedrooms arranged over the first floor.
These are served by a family bathroom with a bath and shower over, alongside a separate WC - a practical touch for a busy household.
Outside, the rear garden is fully enclosed and designed for easy upkeep, with a timber deck adjoining the house giving way to a gravelled area framed by mature trees, and there is driveway parking to the front in addition to the garage.
A well-proportioned, chain-free family home in a settled and well-connected part of Royston.

Location – Royston Royston is a traditional English town in Hertfordshire, on the border of Cambridgeshire and 14 miles from Cambridge.
It grew from the crossing of two ancient thoroughfares, Roman and prehistoric, and carries a wealth of rich heritage - including its own cave, revealed in the 18th Century, carved out of chalk beneath the crossroads in the centre of town.
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.
The town centre offers a market and a high street of bustling shops alongside a wide variety of cafes, restaurants, bars and public houses, with supermarkets on the outskirts, doctors' surgeries, dentists, schools and a leisure centre.
Clubs and activities range from tennis and rugby to hockey and golf.
Transport links are excellent: The town sits on the A10, with the A1M and M11 each within a 15-minute drive, and a mainline station running direct to London Kings Cross in as little as 38 minutes.
