Royston Close, Greenmount

In the heart of the sought-after village of Greenmount, within walking distance of tearooms, restaurants, doctors, playgrounds and transport links, discover Royston Close, a detached home fringed in greenery, nestled on a spacious corner plot.

Sense the feeling of privacy and peace immediately, set away from the main road along a quiet cul-de-sac yet so convenient for all the amenities this vibrant village has to offer.

With ample parking along the driveway in front of the detached garage, make your way past the front lawn, edged in mature shrubbery, which provides a green screen of privacy, and to the front door.

Step inside, into the bright entrance hallway where four doors lead off to different rooms, and a staircase ascends to the left.

Wooden flooring flows underfoot, replaced by grey carpet in the playroom on the left; a versatile bedroom, currently serving as a spacious study, with views out over the garden and driveway to the front. Spotlighting shines down from above with an abundance of storage available in the walk in cupboard beneath the stairs. It could also serve well as a home gym or accessible ground floor bedroom for those with accessibility requirements. Fitted cupboards accommodate the washing machine and dryer.

Across the entrance hall, carpet also extends throughout the large lounge to the right of the front door. A bay window overlooks the garden and draws in plenty of light. Recently decorated in earthy tones, a gas fire issues warmth from within its marble surround. Another spacious room, it opens up to the rear into the dining room beneath an archway, where light also streams in via the conservatory to the rear.

Dressed in neutral, soothing shades, this sociable room connects conveniently to both the kitchen and conservatory; making it ideal when entertaining.

Sliding doors retain the light flow through from the conservatory at the rear, tiled underfoot and ideal as a play area or quiet reading room. Double doors open out to the sunny garden.

From the dining room, make your way through to the kitchen, a room renewed in September 2017 and hosting an array of integrated appliances including a Cookmaster-style oven with gas hob, fridge-freezer and a dishwasher; newly installed in May 2022.

Lightly-toned wood effect laminate floor features underfoot with plenty of storage available in the cream Shaker-style cabinetry. Grey metro tiles run above the worktops, with views out to the tiered garden from above the sink, which can be easily accessed through the side door. Consider the potential to combine the kitchen, dining room and conservatory to create a modern dining kitchen-family room.

Reconnecting to the entrance hall from the kitchen, discover a handy ground floor WC with wash basin on the right, well-lit by a large, obscured glass window to the side.

From the entrance hall ascend the stairs to the first floor landing, bright and airy courtesy of the large window.

Freshen up in the family bathroom on the left, fully tiled to the floor and walls in tones of grey, white and black. Refresh and revive beneath the powerful jets of the shower, with a separate bath tub available for those relaxing soaks. Vanity unit storage beneath the wash basin with a chrome heated towel radiator and WC also available.

Turning left from the bathroom, discover bedroom four, a single bedroom with private and peaceful views out over the lawn, trees and stone walls of the tiered garden to the rear. Handy as a home office or children's bedroom, there is ample storage in the built-in rails, drawers and desk.

Along the landing, arrive at bedroom three, a quiet and peaceful bedroom, carpeted in grey and with plenty of space for a king-size bed and sharing those tranquil views out over the verdant garden to the rear.

Overlooking the front of the home, seek sanctuary in the principal bedroom, carpeted in grey underfoot and recently furnished with floor to ceiling gloss grey fitted wardrobes running the length of the room. Feature wallpaper dresses the wall behind the king size bed, with views out over the front garden and quiet cul-de-sac.

Next door, laminate flooring flows out underfoot in the bedroom two, a fresh-feeling bedroom with views out over the front and ample space for a double bed.

With patio and paving running around the home, gates to the sides ensure the garden at No. 7, Royston Close is safe and secure for children and pets.

Basking in the sun throughout most of the day, this private garden is ideal for all ages, with different tiers to explore and lawn to enjoy. Spacious and mature, the garden blooms into life in spring and summer, with the green foliage reflecting the sun's rays.

A haven for nature, watch for the visiting wildlife and birds, who fill the garden with their song. The detached garage offers plenty of storage, whilst a secret gate provides quick access to the main road when walking into the village.
