Property Insight Set within an established residential turning on the northern side of Royston, this three-bedroom terraced home is offered with no upward chain and makes an ideal first purchase, within easy reach of the town's mainline station, schools and high street.

The accommodation runs to around 708 sq ft across two floors, with a garage to the side and driveway parking to the front.

It has been freshly presented through the main living space, giving new owners a home ready to move straight into while leaving clear scope to update the kitchen and bathroom over time.

A brick and part-clad frontage sits behind a low-maintenance approach, with the front door opening into the heart of the ground floor.

The ground floor is arranged as a bright open-plan lounge and dining room running the full depth of the house, finished with grey wood-effect laminate flooring and freshly painted walls throughout.

A large window to the front draws light over the sitting area, while sliding patio doors at the rear open directly onto the garden, and the staircase rises from the room with a useful cupboard tucked beneath.

The kitchen sits to the rear overlooking the garden, fitted with wood-effect units, dark speckled worktops and a stainless steel sink beneath the window, with an integrated oven, hob and extractor and space for freestanding appliances.

It is dated but fully serviceable, and gives a straightforward starting point for a future refit.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms - two comfortable doubles and a third single ideal as a child's room, nursery or home office - each carrying fresh décor and new carpet.

The family bathroom completes the first floor, fitted with a white suite comprising a bath, pedestal basin and WC, clean and functional with room to modernise in keeping with the rest of the home.

Outside, the rear garden is a generous size for the type, laid mainly to lawn with a paved patio by the house and enclosed by timber fencing with gated rear access.

A garage to the side and driveway complete the picture. A sensible and affordable first move in a well-served 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.
