Shooters Hill, Shooters Hill

This is an absolute cracking family home and one that really does stand out. Stylishly presented from top to bottom, beautifully proportioned and packed with features, it offers the kind of space and finish that is increasingly hard to find within this price range. Set just below the apex of Shooters Hill, the location is equally impressive, surrounded by greenery, wonderful open spaces and some truly fabulous views.

From the entrance hall, the quality of the presentation is immediately apparent, with a modern ground floor cloakroom and an exceptionally useful utility room cleverly incorporated into the space. A flight of stairs leads down to the heart of the home, where the kitchen diner is simply stunning. There is an expansive range of contemporary units, beautiful tiled flooring and bi-fold doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating a superb space for family life, entertaining and summer gatherings.

Back in the entrance hall, a small flight of stairs takes you to the stylishly presented living room. A rear-facing window looks across the garden and out towards the greenery beyond, giving this lovely room a wonderful sense of space and connection with the outdoors.

From here, a further flight of stairs leads to two excellent double bedrooms, both fitted with contemporary white built-in wardrobes which complement the neutral colour scheme running throughout the house. Either bedroom could comfortably claim principal status, although the owners favour the rear bedroom, and it is easy to see why. The views from here are quite amazing, stretching across the golf course and far beyond. The other bedroom enjoys a wonderful outlook towards the dense woodland opposite, meaning both rooms benefit from views that are a real joy to wake up to. There is also a beautifully presented modern family bathroom on this floor.

The top floor provides a further generous double bedroom, again with contemporary fitted wardrobes and a front-facing window overlooking the woodland. It is a fantastic additional bedroom, ideal for children, teenagers, guests or even a home office space when required.

Outside, the accommodation continues to impress. The garage has been sensibly shortened to make room for the utility area, but in doing so it has created a highly practical additional storage space which would make an excellent bike store, workshop or general storage area.

The rear garden is another real highlight. Established, spacious and beautifully arranged, it has been designed with entertaining and family life in mind. A large timber-decked patio provides the perfect starting point, leading onto a generous lawn framed by established herbaceous, shrub and flower borders. Beyond this is a gravelled patio and then another timber-decked area beneath a pergola, surrounded by fern and bamboo planting. At the far end sits an enormous timber shed, providing an impressive amount of additional storage.

And then there is the location. Just below the apex of Shooters Hill, this is an area that offers an enviable combination of greenery, recreation, views and excellent connectivity. Eaglesfield Park is moments away, while Shrewsbury Park and Oxleas Woods provide acres of open space for walking, running and enjoying the outdoors. The historic Severndroog Castle adds another wonderful local landmark, while Shooters Hill Golf Club and Shooters Hill Lawn Tennis Club are both within easy reach.

Families are particularly well served, with Christ Church and Plumcroft both highly regarded primary school options nearby. At the brow of the hill, the 244 bus service provides a direct route towards Woolwich town centre, where there is a huge choice of high street names and several large supermarkets. Woolwich also provides excellent transport connections, with rail and DLR services from Woolwich Arsenal and fast, frequent Elizabeth line services from Woolwich, connecting with Canary Wharf, the City, the West End and Heathrow Airport. Welling and Blackheath are also close by, offering a great selection of independent shops and everyday amenities.

Quite simply, this is a sizeable and spectacular family home with an interior that really needs to be seen to be appreciated. The combination of stylish accommodation, fabulous views, a superb garden and this wonderful Shooters Hill setting makes this a home that is very easy to fall for.
