This attractive early Victorian home, constructed around 1853 and included on the Royal Borough of Greenwich Local Heritage List, is packed with charm, scale and potential. Described as “stock brick with moulded door surrounds and elaborate stucco ornaments with shaped window-heads and scroll brackets and decorative railings to its front steps”, it’s a house that immediately stands out.
Arranged over three floors, the accommodation offers flexibility that will suit upsizers and growing families alike. An inviting entrance hall leads to two generous reception rooms, connected by large double doors to allow the space to flow beautifully when entertaining. Both rooms feature fireplaces, while the front reception also benefits from internal timber shutters.
The ground floor also includes a practical utility room with direct access to the rear garden. Stairs lead down to the lower ground floor where there is a fitted kitchen diner, the first of two bathrooms and a further room that works equally well as a bedroom or additional reception space.
From the entrance hall, a separate staircase rises past the second bathroom and up to the top floor, where three good-sized bedrooms complete the layout. Throughout the house are many characterful features expected of a home of this age, including high ceilings, sash windows and a beautiful staircase with a feature window on the half-landing.
While the house would benefit from updating and redecoration, it is very liveable as it stands and offers an exciting opportunity to refresh and enhance what could once again be a truly stunning early Victorian family home.
Outside, the rear garden extends to approximately 96 feet and is ready for cultivation, offering plenty of scope for keen gardeners or those dreaming of an outdoor entertaining space.
Woodhill is a popular turning with a mix of modern and period homes and is notable for being home to several Grade II listed properties. The location is well connected, with bus routes at the top of the road serving Woolwich town centre, where you’ll find a wide range of shops, supermarkets and restaurants. Woolwich Arsenal rail and DLR station and the Elizabeth Line provide fast links to Canary Wharf, the City, the West End and Heathrow. Woolwich Dockyard station is also close by, approximately a nine-minute walk according to Google Maps.
Several open green spaces are nearby, including Maryon Park, Maryon Wilson Animal Park and Woolwich Common, while families will appreciate the range of well-regarded local schools, with Woodhill and Cardwell primaries being the closest.
A rare chance to secure a substantial, character-filled Victorian home with local heritage status and huge future potential.
