The John Whitgift Foundation has appointed an agent to market The Old Palace of John Whitgift School in South Croydon for offers over £7.5m.
It has appointed Knight Frank to sell the freehold interest of the site with vacant possession, following the closure of the school at the end of this summer term.
The 4.5-acre site on Meville Avenue comprises 11 buildings and includes a large playing field and three hard-surfaced games courts.
Emma Cleugh, head of the education and charities team at Knight Frank, said: “This large freehold property, most recently used as a school, presents a rare opportunity of scale that spans across 4.5 acres of grounds and is set in a very well-connected location. Potential buyers have the option to continue the current use or redevelop the site for alternative mixed or residential uses, subject to the necessary consents.”
