Why live in Royston?

Royston is popular with people who work in Cambridge, Luton and London as they’re an easy commute from this town and its nearby villages. The A1 and M11 are easily accessible, and the train station allows quick access to Cambridge (20 minutes) and London (40 minutes).

There are various housing options available within Royston, and, with plenty of good schools in the area, it’s a popular choice for families. The town has a good mix of property styles, with modern family homes tending to be found just outside of the town centre, which has much older, period properties. There are many beautiful villages nearby too.

Dating back to the 12^th century, Royston is steeped in history. It has its own Grade I listed cave carved out of chalk, and the Royse Stone, which has stood at a crossroads in the town for 900 years.

Therfield Heath Nature Reserve overlooks the town and gives beautiful views over the neighbouring countryside. It’s a lovely place for walking and also has an 18-hole golf course.

Superb estate agent - helpful and supportive. Got us onto the market quickly, and we sold within a week. When our purchase fell through, they managed the chain below us, and we were able to find a new house to buy without the chain collapsing. Always friendly and professional - could not recommend them more highly.

Robert and the team worked really hard for us. We lost 2 sales due to no fault of theirs and almost gave up but they kept at it and we finally sold the property much to our delight. Communication was great throughout and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others. Thank you!

I had a really good experience working with Robert and Kirsty from Country Properties Royston. I felt well informed and found them transparent, responsive and professional. A great team - thanks for all of your help!

Medieval-style carvings can be seen within it, and it’s open to the public at certain times each week. Royston Cave is now a Grade I listed building.
