103 Melbourn Road, Royston, Hertfordshire, SG8 7DG

An exceptional four bedroom semi detached Victorian residence with impressive accommodation arranged over three floors, driveway parking and a 100 ft. rear garden.

Detailed Description

A remarkable four bedroom semi detached Victorian home that has been sympathetically improved and complemented by attractive timber clad extensions. The well planned accommodation extends to approximately 2,212 sq. ft. across three floors, with the additional benefit of a basement, and has been thoughtfully designed to retain a wealth of period features including stained glass windows, fireplaces, exposed floorboards and decorative coving. The residence occupies an enviable central position within this thriving market town, enjoying a 100 ft. rear garden and easy access to both the town centre and the mainline rail station, which provides direct services to London King's Cross and Cambridge.

The front of the property features mature shrub borders which are open to the front, providing an attractive approach and giving access to the cobbled driveway and the decorative pathway leading to the entrance door.

The fully enclosed rear garden extends to approximately 100 ft. and is predominantly laid to lawn, with a patio seating area that steps down to the main lawn. A section of mature trees, raised beds and shrubs leads to a further patio area with two storage sheds. The garden also benefits from gated side access, external lighting, power points and an outside tap.
