Property Insight Set on the second floor of a well-kept purpose-built Apartment on the edge of Royston, this two-bedroom apartment makes a straightforward first purchase or a sensible buy-to-let, offered with no upward chain. The block sits back from the road behind mature hedging and communal lawns, with a bright southerly aspect to the main rooms and rooftop and treetop views to the front. Within walking distance of Royston's mainline station and town centre, it is well placed for commuters and first-time buyers alike, and the accommodation is presented in good order throughout. The living space is the heart of the flat: a generous lounge and dining room running open to one another, dual-aspect with windows to two sides that keep the room bright through the day, with ample space for both seating and a dining table. Adjacent, the kitchen is fitted with white shaker-style units, a granite-effect worktop and a tiled surround, with an integrated oven, hob and extractor, and space for a freestanding fridge-freezer. A window over the counter looks out across the neighbouring rooftops. The two bedrooms sit off the hall, the principal a comfortable double with a window to the rear, the second a well-proportioned single suited equally to a nursery or home working. The shower room is fully tiled and fitted with a large walk-in shower enclosure, a pedestal basin and WC, with a mirrored cabinet above. The development is surrounded by communal grounds and lawns, and there is a garage en-bloc. A chain-free opportunity in a settled residential pocket close to the station.

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.
