The broad plot and impressive 185’ frontage invites the new owners to extend the house substantially, or even to replace the house in this high-value location, subject to consents.
William Webb (1862-1930) was a visionary estate agent who developed 260 acres of farmland into the Webb Estate where today over a hundred years on, substantial and individually designed Edwardian houses, and a few more recent ones, enjoy privacy in spacious leafy gardens. The Webb Estate is protected by trustees and is now designated as a Conservation Area.
Webb designed the estate to reflect Surrey village life with a village green, local stores and winding lanes. One of the principal lanes on the estate, Silver Lane remains lined with protected Silver Birch trees and has automated gates as it meets Woodcote Green.
Our clients’ house was individually designed and built around 1950 in a generous plot approaching one acre. In the Surrey farmhouse style, the house has the warmth of traditional character, enhanced by each improvement over the years. Impeccably presented, the house has a bright and good-sized interior. Certainly a feature, the beautiful gardens are mature and secluded, providing all-season display with a Southerly aspect to the rear. There is a substantial three-car garage and garden store.
The property represents a rare opportunity to those wishing to live on this prestigious estate, maybe even to downsize from one of the more substantial Webb houses. Alternatively, due to the impressive width of this plot and its frontage of around 185’, there is untold potential to extend and even replace the house in this very high-value location, subject to planning and trustees’ consent.
Such a private and verdant location is seldom found so close to London and with such excellent accessibility. Just a mile away, Purley offers varied shopping and from the station there are fast rail services into London Bridge and Victoria, as well the Gatwick Express.
Nearby, the A23 gives an arterial route to London and in around 15 minutes, the M25/M23 intersection providing swift road access to both Gatwick and Heathrow airports, the channel tunnel and coastal ports.
Some four miles to the West, the delightful village of Banstead offers more varied shopping including Waitrose and M&S Simply Food as well as many restaurants and cafes. The area has a wealth of excellent schooling including Whitgift, Trinity, John Fisher, Cumnor House, St David’s Primary and Senior, Wallington Girls and Croydon High School for Girls.
For sport and leisure pursuits, there are local clubs for cricket, squash, tennis and golf and there are many restaurants, cinema and theatres within easy reach. The open spaces of Oaks Park, Riddlesdown and Banstead Woods are also nearby.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 24, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
