Description

This five-bedroom double-fronted detached family home is located within the desirable Whitgift Foundation Estate, offering a substantial living space that presents notable renovation and investment potential. The property features an inviting entrance hall accompanied by a cloakroom, two spacious bay-fronted reception rooms, and a generous conservatory measuring 20'3" x 11'3". The kitchen completes the ground floor layout, while the upper level hosts a master bedroom, four additional double bedrooms, and two well-proportioned bathrooms. The home sits on a mature plot with established front and rear gardens, providing a serene outdoor space for family activities or future landscaping projects. A driveway accommodates up to three or four vehicles alongside a garage, enhancing convenience. There is considerable scope for extending the property (subject to planning permission), allowing prospective buyers to tailor their living space to suit personal preferences or market demands. While the home requires modernisation, this offers an opportunity for buyers to increase its value through renovation efforts. Transport links are advantageous, with multiple bus services available on nearby Addiscombe Road and Sandilands Tram stop just a short walk away. This service provides swift connections to key destinations such as London Bridge, Victoria, and Gatwick Airport in approximately 16 minutes. The area also boasts several highly regarded educational institutions including Trinity School (under half a mile away), Whitgift School for boys, and Old Palace and Croydon High School for girls. Residents can enjoy nearby recreational options such as Lloyd Park and Addington Hills, along with Shirley Park Golf Club. This combination of location benefits and potential for enhancement makes this property an intriguing opportunity for both families looking for a new home and investors seeking long-term growth.
