'Gad's Hill Villa' c1860 – a legacy of rare Victorian distinction

Victorian grandeur meets flawless contemporary living in this stately Croydon landmark, privately set on a 1,232sqm parcel of land within the prestigious Malvern Hill Estate. Built by local merchant Laurence Bergin in 1860 and named in honour of Charles Dickens' English country home, this peerless residence exudes the stature of a bygone era, showcasing elegant features and meticulous craftsmanship. Grand rooms tell a story of history and heritage, with its authenticity and pedigree preserved throughout its sensitive 21st century enhancement. The two-storey floorplan is vast and versatile, offering a multitude of accommodation and entertaining options. Secluded among landscaped gardens with an expansive terrace, outdoor kitchen and a pool, it presents an exceptional environment for large or extended families. Capturing city skyline and district views from its elevated vantage point, it's just a brief stroll to Croydon village, where you'll find charming local shops, cafes and the train station, along with highly regarded schools and the Ashfield Aquatic Centre. One of the area's oldest and most historically significant landholdings, Gad's Hill Villa is now ready for new custodians to become part of its important legacy.
