Description
*** Vendor comments*** "For the past 60 years, this house has been so much more than just bricks and mortar – it has been my sanctuary, my family’s foundation, and the heart of a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. Now, at 92 years old, I’ve made the bittersweet decision to move closer to my family. Letting go isn’t easy, but I’m filled with gratitude as I reflect on all this home has given me – and excited for the next chapter it will offer someone new.
What truly makes this place special is the community. Over the decades, my neighbours have become dear friends – more like family, really – and together we’ve created a warm, welcoming environment where everyone looks out for one another. It’s rare to find a place that feels this connected, where you’re greeted with a smile and always know someone is there for you.
Set in a peaceful, green pocket of South Croydon, the location is the perfect blend of countryside charm and city convenience. Surrounded by beautiful woodlands like Little heath Woods and Croham Hurst Woods, you’ll enjoy serene morning walks, birdsong, and the calming embrace of nature.
Yet just a short drive away, you'll find the vibrant Sainsbury’s flagship store, excellent local shops, and everything you need right at your fingertips. Families will especially appreciate the access to outstanding schools – both private and state – where my own son received an education that helped shape the wonderful man he is today. This home and its surroundings played a huge role in his upbringing, and I’m forever grateful for that.
For those who enjoy an active lifestyle, you’re spoilt for choice with nearby golf clubs like Selsdon and Croham Hurst, not to mention countless parks and green spaces. And if the city calls, South Croydon and East Croydon stations offer fast, direct links to London Bridge and Victoria in just 15–20 minutes. Even the coast is within easy reach – Brighton is just a 45-minute train ride away, perfect for a spontaneous day by the sea.
I’ve always thought of this place as the "heartbeat of Greater London" – a rare blend of tranquillity, convenience, and genuine community spirit.
This home has been my greatest joy, and I leave with a heart full of love and gratitude. To the next owner: I hope this house brings you the same comfort, peace, and happiness that it gave me for so many years. May you fill it with new memories, laughter, and love – just as we did. This isn’t just a house. It’s a true home. And I couldn’t be more proud to pass it on".
