Spacious and bright, with sprawling accommodation enjoying impressive leafy outlooks, this superbly located family home needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Offered to the market for the first time in several decades, the property retains features of its era of construction and has large and versatile accommodation. The ground floor layout includes an impressive 16' entrance hall, four reception rooms a large kitchen breakfast room, and a downstairs cloakroom. Moving upstairs, you will find all four of the bedrooms off of the galleried landing, bedroom benefitting from a dressing room and en-suite bathroom.

The Highly Desirable Location
The Whitgift Foundation Estate is one of the most prestigious areas in which to reside in the borough. This property can be found on Grimwade Avenue on the side of the road which backs onto Lloyds Park, where much coveted homes rarely come onto the market. Containing detached homes of a superior nature, it is not hard to see why this area is held in such high regard.
Commuting & Transport Links
The peaceful leafy backdrop of Grimwade Avenue is in stark contrast to amenities that are within very easy reach. Within around half a mile you will find the main Addiscombe road that offers a range of connections that includes bus routes to Bromley, Purley, Shirley and many more destinations. Sandliands Tram Stop is also within 0.6 of a mile, providing links to Wimbledon, Beckenham, and rail services at East Croydon; where you will find fast rail services to London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Gatwick Airport and lots more too. The M25 & M23 are approximately 10 miles away.
Schools & Recreation
Numerous highly regarded schools are close by which include Whitgift, Royal Russell, Trinity, Coloma and St Johns. Backing the delightful Lloyds Park walks and play areas for children are nearby, as is Shirley Hills, Foxes Wood and Coombe Wood Gardens. Golf courses within easy reach include The Addington and Shirley Park.
Future Potential
Whilst the property offers substantial accommodation as it stands now, similar homes have had very large extensions to provide exceptionally extensive multigenerational homes. There is ample scope to the rear and a huge loft space that could be used for adding additional living rooms and bedrooms. The double garage could be used for a 'granny annexe' style set up, and homes of this calibre have had basement areas excavated providing leisure and entertainment facilities. Of course, any improvements of this nature would require the relevant local authority planning and building regulation consents.
