Purley Oak train station is just a short walk away where you can take your pick from Victoria or London Bridge as destinations – both around 25 minutes’ travel time. Alternatively, Gatwick Airport is just 26 minutes in the other direction. Road links are excellent too, with the A23 a matter of minutes away, providing fast, easy access to London, the South Coast and the M25.
There are a number of excellent schools within close proximity including the very popular Wallington Girls, Wilson’s, Whitgift, John Fisher, Margaret Roper and Thomas Moore to name just a few.
If you’re feeling a little more active there are a number of local health and leisure clubs to choose from, whilst excellent golf courses, recreation grounds and other open spaces are all close by including the wide-open spaces of Riddlesdown Common, Kenley Common and the recreational facilities of Kenley Airfield.
A little further afield there’s Croydon – offering the kind of facilities you’d expect from a larger town including major shopping, the soon to be developed "Westfield" Centre and the trendy "Box Park" next to East Croydon station.
