The lounge is a very nicely presented room, with a lovely bay window to a front aspect and bespoke shutters, pendant lighting, a feature fireplace, integrated shelving, and ample space for a variety of lounge and storage furniture. Accessed via an archway, the dining room enjoys a lovely open-plan atmosphere with the lounge and a door to a rear aspect.

The kitchen is a very good size, benefiting from a window to a side aspect, a range of base and wall units, laminate worktops, tiled splashbacks, pendant lighting, an integrated double oven, gas hob and extractor, and space for a dishwasher, undercounter fridge/freezer and other small kitchen appliances. The utility room provides further storage, access to the rear, access to a cloakroom WC, and space for large laundry appliances.
Upstairs to the first floor, this lovely Victorian home continues to offer generous and well-presented accommodation, with 4 well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom, comprising a bath with an overhead shower, a WC and a hand wash basin. The loft is boarded and offers lots of excellent and accessible storage.
Outside, to the rear, the south west facing garden is an excellent size, fully enclosed by fencing and offering a wonderfully private space to sit and relax in the sunshine. It is laid mainly to lawn, with further artificial lawn just by the house, offering plenty of space for garden furniture, enjoying family meals and entertaining guests. There are well-maintained borders and beds, full of plants, flowers, trees and shrubs, access to a large shed, and lots of scope for future owners to put their own stamp on things or extend if desired, subject to the correct planning permissions.

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.
Royston boasts excellent transport links for residents, visitors and businesses. The town is located on the A10, with the A1M and M11 each within a 15-minute drive. There is a mainline train station with a regular service direct to London Kings Cross as quick as 38 minutes. If you want to travel internationally, London Stansted airport and London Luton Airport are both just half an hour's drive away.
If you aren’t familiar with Royston and its beautiful surrounding countryside, we recommend paying it a visit today!
