About this home

Introduction

An excellent opportunity to acquire a spacious and well-maintained two bedroom ground floor apartment, ideally positioned within a small and exclusive residential development in the heart of Royston Town Centre. The property offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout, together with the unusual benefit of its own private rear courtyard garden and an allocated parking space close by. With the town centre, local amenities and transport links all within easy reach, this would make an ideal first-time purchase, investment or comfortable home.

Step Inside The accommodation opens into a communal entrance hall, leading into a generous lounge measuring over 22ft in length. This light and versatile room has a front-facing window, two radiators and a door providing access to the outside. The separate kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall and base units, ample work surfaces, inset sink, fitted oven and gas hob, together with an integrated fridge and freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. An inner hallway leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes along one wall, while bedroom two also has built-in wardrobe storage. The modern bathroom is fitted with a panel-enclosed bath with shower attachment and glazed screen, wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and low-flush WC. The gas-fired boiler is housed within a useful storage cupboard.

Step Outside One of the property's particular features is the courtyard garden to the rear, providing an attractive outside space that is unusual for a town-centre apartment. There are also communal gardens to the front. The property further benefits from an allocated parking space situated close to the apartment, providing valuable off-road parking.

Royston also benefits from excellent recreational facilities including Therfield Heath and Golf Course, together with schools, a health centre and leisure centre. The mainline railway station is within easy reach and provides fast and regular services towards Cambridge and London, making the property particularly well suited to commuters.
