Summary - Flecks Drive, Shingay Cum Wendy, Royston, Cambridgeshire SG8 0BQ
4 bed 2 bath Detached
High-spec new build on a generous plot with excellent open-plan living.
Large private garden and unusually big plot for the area
Set on a generous plot in a small cul-de-sac of ten homes, this newly built four-bedroom detached house suits families who want countryside calm with straightforward commuting to Royston and Cambridge. The rear of the house is arranged around a wide open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with bifold doors, creating a bright living area that flows onto the garden. A separate sitting room with a feature stone wood burner and a useful study provide formal and flexible spaces for family life and working from home.
Specification is high and contemporary throughout: Silestone worktops, integrated Bosch appliances, Amtico flooring to the ground floor, underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs, plus an air source heat pump for low-emission heating. Practical extras include a larger-than-normal double garage with electric vehicle charging, a utility room with appliances, wired alarms and a 10-year LABC warranty for buyer reassurance.
Upstairs, four double bedrooms are served by two bathrooms; the principal suite benefits from an en suite and a terrace overlooking the garden. Plot sizes here are notably generous compared with typical suburban plots, giving excellent outdoor space for children and pets and good separation between neighbours. The village setting offers a quiet, rural feel while Royston station (5.5 miles) and Cambridge (about 11.6 miles) are within commuting distance.
Buyers should note running and ownership costs: the property sits in Council Tax Band G (£3,839.93 for 2024/25) and main fuel is electricity (air source heat pump), so budget for electric tariff costs. The development is complete and available for immediate occupation, making this a practical choice for families wanting new-build specification and countryside setting without long lead times.
