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 Mapledale Avenue, looking towards the green oasis, which is the Whitgift Pond. 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 Mapledale Avenue is in stark contrast to the amenities that are within very easy reach. Within a few hundred yards you will find the main Addiscombe Road, which offers a range of connections that include bus routes to Bromley, Purley, Shirley, and many more destinations. Sandilands Tram Stop is 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. The delightful Lloyds Park is just around the corner, offering pleasant walks and play areas for children, and only slightly further afield are 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 large extensions. There is a huge loft which could provide additional living space and bedrooms, and the garage could be converted to provide a ‘granny annexe’. Homes of this calibre have had basement areas excavated to provide leisure and entertainment facilities. Of course, any improvements of this nature would require the relevant local authority planning and building regulation consents.

Further Features
The property has two attractive feature fireplaces and many elegant stained glass windows. The kitchen features Corian worksurfaces, ceramic and an attractive pebble floor feature, Built in Gaggenau gas, induction, and ceramic hob, plate warmer, Neff steam oven, Neff bake/microwave over, two built in Liebherr fridges, and ample cupboard space. The central heating is supplied by a condensing gas boiler and NEST technology. The kitchen, living area and Reception 2 have Rako remote controlled zoned and themed lighting, there is a water softener, and a loft space of approx 100sqm (1,100sqft).
