Property description

A modern four bedroom detached house with five reception areas and a games room with annexe potential, set in landscaped gardens with driveway parking and an attached double garage.

The brick under slate property was built in 1980 in the centre of Royston in a secluded position set back from the road and is one of three houses along a small lane behind electric gates. The accommodation of approximately 3,824 sq. ft. includes an entrance hall with the staircase with a feature arched window and doors to the study, a utility room leading to a shower room, the kitchen/breakfast/family room and the sitting/dining room. There is also a games room extension with a kitchen and shower room which could be used as a separate annexe. Leading off the first floor landing are four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The house is situated in the centre of the plot which is approximately 0.34 acres in size. The gardens are enclosed by wooden fences and mature hedges and mainly laid to lawn and interspersed with mature trees. To the front there is off road parking for up to ten cars with an electric charging point.

Ground Floor

An entrance porch has double doors to the main hall. The ground floor features a study which could be used as a bedroom. The utility room has fitted units, a built-in sink, and an attached shower room. The sitting room features patio doors with views over the gardens and is open to the dining area. This includes a feature fireplace, pendant lighting, and a concealed, shelved door opening to a games room/annexe, with its own kitchen area and a second shower room. The main kitchen/breakfast room, open to the family area, has a range of units, a breakfast bar, and integrated appliances, including ovens, a microwave, a dishwasher, and a wine cooler.

First Floor

The over 20 ft. by over 17 ft. principal bedroom features built-in wardrobes, windows to the side and rear, and an en suite with a corner bath, double basins, a low-level WC, and a shower cubicle. Bedroom two overlooks the side and has its own en suite shower room. The remaining accommodation consists of further double bedrooms, a landing with an airing cupboard, and a family bathroom with a bath, a vanity unit, a low-level WC, and a shower cubicle.

Outside

To the front, a block-paved driveway provides parking for ten or more vehicles and access to the double garage. Gated paths on both sides lead to the fully enclosed rear garden, which is primarily laid to lawn. The outdoor space features two distinct seating areas: a patio outside the games room/annexe bi-fold doors and a shingle terrace adjoining the kitchen/family room. Select trees on the property are subject to Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs).
