Abode are delighted to offer to market this lovely example of a Victorian semi detached home in central Royston, Hertfordshire. The popular road of Morton Street has many lovely examples of Victorian era properties, and number 14 Morton Street benefits from a very generous plot extending to some 0.09 acres. The central location and plot size would be ideal to extend the property and create a substantial family home (STP). On the ground floor of the property we find a large open plan living and dining room, and kitchen overlooking the substantial rear garden. On the first floor we have two double bedrooms, and a very large family shower room. The property further benefits from a large cellar, off- road parking and a large garage. The stepped rear garden is segregated into three areas the patio leading from the property, a lawn area, leading to a large rear allotment. The property would benefit from modernisation and represents a lovely opportunity to develop this period property into a stunning home.
