Description
Description
Incredibly rare to the market and home to the current owners since 1998 is this prominent Georgian house arranged over four floors within the Pier Head Conservation Area, dating back to 1811.
The home offers versatile space over eight main rooms and currently accommodates two reception rooms, four bedrooms, a kitchen, a utility room, a bathroom, a shower room, a guest W/C, a generously sized attic and rear patio. There is also a roof terrace which provides spectacular views of the river Thames, beautiful gardens and Oliver's Wharf.
There are a range of original features throughout including high ceilings, fire places, sash windows, an open well staircase, a vaulted entranceway and wide floorboards.
The generously sized riverside garden is privately owned and well-maintained by the residents’ management company. The house shares ownership of the garden, the cobbled lane and the beach which is revealed twice each day at low tide. The house has a right to use the garden and to park a car in the lane.
Location
The house is perfectly located on a garden square in Wapping, next to the river Thames, within the Pier Head Conservation Area.
Tower Bridge and St Katharine Docks are approximately 0.5 miles away. The City and Canary Wharf are within easy reach by foot, bus or train.
'Pier Head' was created by architect Daniel Asher Alexander who designed two terraces of dock officials’ houses either side of the entrance to the London Docks at Wapping Pierhead, built in 1811. The dock entrance became a riverside garden after the closure of the London Docks in 1969. For over 200 years Pier Head has remained almost unchanged, a reminder of the grandeur of the London Docks, two elegant terraces of Georgian houses standing tall and proud overlooking the Thames.
Wapping is home to a number of riverside pubs, restaurants and luxury developments whilst preserving much of its wonderful docklands history. Wapping is adored for its cobbled streets, warehouse architecture and enjoyable Thames Walk.
