Description

Nestled in a peaceful cul-de-sac, this four-bedroom property presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and investment. Originally a three-bedroom home, the layout has been thoughtfully adapted to include a converted garage that now serves as an additional bedroom and features a convenient downstairs shower room. The ground floor comprises a comfortable lounge, a separate dining area, and a fitted kitchen that leads to a conservatory overlooking the rear garden. This layout supports multiple living arrangements, making it suitable for families or those seeking space for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom are ready for your personal touch. While the property is in need of modernisation, this aspect allows buyers the freedom to customize the interiors according to their tastes and needs. With some planning and investment, there is considerable potential to increase its value significantly. The front driveway provides off-street parking, while the spacious rear garden holds promise for landscaping projects or outdoor entertainment spaces. Location-wise, this home enjoys proximity to Royston train station, offering commuters rapid access to London King's Cross in under 45 minutes along with connections to Cambridge and Stevenage. Families will appreciate the selection of nearby schools with positive Ofsted ratings—St Mary Roman Catholic Primary School (Ofsted ‘Good’), Icknield Walk First School (Ofsted ‘Outstanding’), and Meridian School (Ofsted ‘Good’). Royston itself is a vibrant market town with a rich history, offering an array of amenities including shops, cafés, pubs, supermarkets, and recreational facilities—all within easy reach. Nature enthusiasts will find nearby Therfield Heath ideal for walks and outdoor activities. Additionally, major roads provide straightforward access to Cambridge (approximately 13 miles away), Stevenage (about 15 miles), and Bishop’s Stortford (20 miles). With its versatile design and ample renovation potential within a sought-after area of Royston, this property stands as an enticing prospect for those looking to establish or enhance their family residence.
