This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Royston offers an affordable, move‑in ready option for first-time buyers or young families. The interior provides practical living with a lounge, kitchen-diner, utility space and three bedrooms within a compact 732 sq ft footprint. Solar panels and mains gas central heating lower running costs. Outside there are two allocated parking spaces, a front lawn and an enclosed, low‑maintenance rear garden on a decent plot.
The property dates from the late 1990s/early 2000s and benefits from double glazing and cavity wall insulation (assumed). Its size makes it manageable for families wanting straightforward upkeep, and nearby schools rated Good are within easy reach. Fast broadband and average mobile signal support home working and family connectivity.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: local area deprivation and a high crime rate may concern some purchasers; the home is described in records as having a single bathroom despite marketing references to an en‑suite, so confirm exact layout at viewing. The overall internal size is small, so those needing larger living spaces should consider whether the footprint meets their needs.
Priced around £160,000–£170,000 and offered freehold with no onward chain noted in marketing, this house suits buyers prioritising affordability, low running costs and a manageable garden, but who accept location and size trade‑offs. Viewing is recommended to assess space and local setting in person.
