Walnut Tree Close, Bassingbourn, Royston, Cambridgeshire, SG8

Tucker Gardner are proud to introduce this superb semi-detached family home, positioned within one of Bassingbourn’s most desirable residential areas. Ideally situated within a short walk of village amenities and respected local schools, the property presents an exciting opportunity for future extension (STPP) and showcases a bright open-plan kitchen/dining space, a practical utility/boot room, a generously sized lounge, three well-proportioned bedrooms, a newly installed family bathroom, beautifully maintained gardens and private driveway parking.

The Home

The property enjoys strong kerb appeal, with an immaculate front lawn framed by mature planting and shrubs, along with gated side access leading to the rear garden. Stepping inside, the entrance hall offers a warm welcome, featuring wood flooring, spot lighting, useful storage for coats and shoes, and stairs rising to the first floor.

The spacious lounge is an inviting room ideal for family living, enhanced by a broad front-facing window and a feature fireplace with an attractive wood-burning stove. Integrated storage, soft décor, pendant lighting and ample room for a full suite of furnishings complete this comfortable space.

To the rear, the open-plan kitchen/dining room provides an excellent setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Enjoying views to both the side and rear, it is fitted with a range of wall and base units, laminate worktops, tiled flooring and splashbacks, and offers plenty of room for appliances, dining furniture and additional storage. The adjoining utility/boot room adds welcome practicality, with further appliance space, storage solutions and direct access to the garden.

The first floor offers three well-sized bedrooms, each benefitting from good natural light and built-in storage. A recently fitted family bathroom completes the accommodation, comprising a modern bath with overhead shower, WC and wash basin.

The rear garden is a particular highlight — fully enclosed and thoughtfully landscaped to create a tranquil outdoor retreat. With a combination of lawn and paved patio, it provides excellent space for outdoor dining, hosting guests or simply unwinding. Mature borders planted with shrubs and seasonal flowers add colour and interest throughout the year, and a large garden shed offers valuable storage.
