This modern, high-spec detached house (built 2019) is arranged over two floors and offers almost 2,000 sq ft of well-proportioned living space — ideal for a growing family seeking room to spread out. The home centres on a bright open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining area with a large island and integrated appliances, plus a separate lounge and additional reception room that can serve as playroom, study or TV room. Four double bedrooms include two en-suites and generous built-in storage, making mornings easier for a busy household.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden with paved patio and pergola provides a safe, private space for children and pets, while the detached double garage and wide block-paved driveway deliver plentiful off-street parking for several vehicles. The property sits a short walk from Royston town centre with easy access to green open spaces and commuter routes — attractive for parents, professionals and those who enjoy nearby countryside walks.
Practical points to note: the home benefits from air-conditioning, gas central heating and an EPC rating of B, and there is no flood risk. However, broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and council tax is described as fairly expensive — factors that may matter for home-working or household budgets. The property is freehold and occupies a large plot, offering scope for landscaping or further adaptation subject to planning.
Overall this is a contemporary, well-appointed family house combining generous interior space with strong kerb appeal and useful outbuildings. It will suit buyers seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation in a very affluent, commuter-friendly town, who are comfortable with the area's council tax level and current broadband limitations.
