Webb Estate, Purley, Surrey CR8


Description
A quintessential Arts & Crafts manor house occupying a secluded plot of about 1.25 acres in arguably the most sought-after road on this prestigious private Estate.

The property The Copse is a landmark home in arguably the most prestigious road on this private Estate. Occupying a beautifully tended and secluded plot of 1.24 acres, The Copse is the only house in Rose Walk that extends all the way back to The South Border.

This wonderful home oozes character and charm and retains many of its original features to include grand fireplaces and panelled walls. Whilst the interior is extensive, it is also intimate and it strikes a rare balance between providing a family with the space they need without feeling overwhelmed. The reception hall extends the depth of the house with double doors opening to the rear garden. The drawing room and sitting room both feature impressive fireplaces and both overlook the rear garden. The dining room is front facing and adjoins the kitchen/breakfast room which comprises a modern range of units with granite work tops and through two curved windows, overlooks the indoor pool. There is also access to a study with vaulted ceiling. On the first floor, there is a substantial master bedroom with dressing room (formerly a bedroom) and large bathroom. There are four further en-suite bedrooms over the first and second floors.

This unique property stands on a deep plot extending from Rose Walk to The South Border. Situated at the end of a long gated driveway, this fine home enjoys complete privacy. There are well tended lawns to the front and rear and an indoor swimming pool complex with sauna and shower facilities. There is ample parking and two large garages.

Location The Webb Estate was conceived and constructed by William Webb who acquired the land in 1888. When Croydon Municipal Tramways
reached Purley in 1901, the Estate was finally within commuting distance of London, bringing his vision a 'garden suburb for city men'
one step closer. The Estate is now a designated conservation area and has maintained its tranquillity and character for over a century.
Every road has its individual charm and character with Rose Walk deriving its name from the 6000 roses from 400 varieties originally
planted. Its red surface and grand gated entrances at either end add to the exclusivity of this premier road.

As well as numerous leisure facilities including golf clubs, tennis and squash clubs and swimming baths, the area is extremely well served by an excellent choice of schools including Whitgift, Trinity, John Fisher, Cumnor House, Caterham, Croydon High and Old Palace.

Frequent rail services from Purley provide transport to London (Victoria from 24 minutes, London Bridge from 30 minutes) whilst the
M23/M25 intersection is about 4 miles away giving access to the national motorway network and Gatwick and Heathrow International
airports.
