Hannah James Estates are delighted to present to market this well presented four bedroom detached family home, brilliantly located within the Selsdon Vale Estate with magnificent views across to the National Trust Selsdon Wood Nature Reserve (ideal for dog walking). A well regarded and chain free Wimpey built house that is extra sought after on this site because it is not on the bus route and for its close proximity to the sought after Greenvale Primary school and being one of the rarer four bedroom detached house with a downstairs WC. All the roads on the Estate are named after birds (Nightingale, Redwing, Lapwing, Sandpiper, Bullfinch, Goldfinch to name a few) as the National Trust's Bird Sanctuary in Selsdon is a few minutes walk away.

The accommodation comprises of entrance hall with access to the downstairs WC, leading into the bright and spacious living room with superb views of the Bird Sanctuary. The downstairs living space works well with the reception room merging into the dining room with sliding doors leading to the rear garden. The separate kitchen is well equipped with a range of wall and base units, with ample space for appliances. To the first floor, there are four well proportioned bedrooms, two doubles and two singles, and family bathroom.

Externally there is the rear garden which is mainly laid to lawn with a patio area with access to the side storage area with power and lighting with Scope to extend STPP. To the front of the property there is a generous size driveway offering parking for several cars and includes a large, detached garage.

The property benefits from double glazed windows, gas central heating with a boiler which was installed in 2022.

There are some amazing views across to the Nature Reserve where you can watch the changing lights during the day and beautiful skycapes are a feature from the front of the house.

The property is enviably located in a highly sought after residential road within easy access of nearby Selsdon High Street, with Aldi, Sainsbury's, convenience stores and a variety of restaurants. Additionally, there are a number of excellent schools in the area including Croydon High School for Girls and nearby Greenvale Primary which is only a few minutes walk from the property. The area also boasts of numerous recreational facilities including Farleigh Court Golf course, Bird Sanctuary offering wonderful open spaces and woodland walks and close by is The Birch, Selsdon, with great restaurants, an outdoor lido and caters for those who love to be close to nature. Croydon itself can be accessed via the 433 bus route which is a 3 minute walk from the Property with excellent links to East Croydon train station with its fast and frequent services to London Bridge and London Victoria and the South Coast.

One of the last and largest of the well regarded Wimpey Homes to be built on the tranquil Selsdon Vale development with magnificent uninterrupted views over the National Trust owned 200 acre Selsdon Wood Nature Reserve within the London LOOP but within just 40-45 minutes' commuting time of the City. Sir Julian Huxley, a scientist, who promoted the Reserve, has a local inn named after him in the centre of Selsdon village. A public footpath in Bullfinch Road and Mallard Road leads to Selsdon recreation ground and Selsdon village respectively. Selsdon recreation ground has its own carpark and playground. The route also leads via Greville Avenue to the Addington Road close to the Selsdon parade of shops (pictured), Selsdon Primary (pictured), Quest Academy, and the rich array of village life with cafes, hairdressers, an Aldi, restaurants a Costa and Wetherspoons. A little further there is a Harvesters, the Cricketers.

The tram stop to East Croydon is a short walk from Addington Road or the 433 bus on Nightingale Road runs to the Addington village tram stop (close to Addington Palace and Golf Course) which takes about 14 minutes to get to East Croydon station. The quickest car journey to central Croydon is via Sorrel Bank and then Pixton Way without having to go through Selsdon village. From East Croydon station central London is only about 15 minutes away. The popular Greenvale Primary is the closest school, and the GDST Croydon High is walking distance and adjoins a Sainsbury's and the historic Selsdon Park Hotel (now The Birch) and Golf course, once home to the Bishops of Rochester. A short car or bus journey away is open country and the Farleigh Golf Club and popular gastro inn, The Harrow, with horses next door (pictured) on the common.
