For 8 years now we have been the leading Roydon property
specialists, helping to raise the profile of the village and prevent people
from confusing this small, attractive East Herts/West Essex village with the
larger North Herts town of Royston! Roydon (Essex) is approximately 8 miles
north of Epping, 3 miles west of Harlow and just 2 ½ miles east of Stanstead
Abbotts (Hertfordshire), with the River Stort forming the county border,
adjacent to the level crossing at Roydon railway station. The village has a
population of just under 2800 people, a well-reputed Primary School, a variety of shops and
pubs including a Post Office, St Peters Church and there are delightful
walks to be enjoyed walks along the River Stort and surrounding countryside.
As with Stanstead Abbotts however, the main lifeblood of the village is the
fact that it has it's own railway station, in the case of Roydon, on the
Stansted Express line between London Liverpool Street and Kings Lynn. From
Roydon, for commuters, the journey time to Liverpool Street is a little as
33 minutes, making the village an extremely attractive 'rural retreat' for
City workers or those moving out from the Loughton/Epping areas.
