This newly renovated two-bedroom ground-floor apartment sits a short 0.4-mile walk from Royston train station, offering fast links to London and Cambridge. The property has been painted throughout and benefits from new double-glazed windows, a modern kitchen and a stylish bathroom — ready to move into with minimal immediate work required.
The layout is compact and efficient, with a bright lounge, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a private rear garden for outdoor space. Allocated off-street parking adds convenience for car owners and the low council tax (Band B) helps running costs.
Important practical points are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 120 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £200 and an average service charge of £1,932. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and external walls are assumed to have no added insulation, which may affect long-term energy performance.
This home will suit first-time buyers wanting a low-maintenance town-centre base or investors seeking an appealing rental near strong commuter links. Be aware the local area records higher crime levels, so factor security and insurance considerations into any viewing and offer decisions.
