The Property



Attractive mid-Victorian terraced house of very spacious proportions occupying a prime site on the upper reaches of the Plumstead Common Conservation Area. The property has five bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate WC on the ground floor. The front facing rooms all enjoy direct and uninterrupted views over leafy Plumstead Common, with the rooms to the rear overlooking nicely mellowed and peaceful Victorian streets framed by the tree canopy of nearby Shrewsbury Park.

The shared rooms (living room, dining kitchen and two bathrooms and a further separate WC make this an ideal property for between four and six adult tenants.

The house is in a very quiet area with large green spaces. This makes it ideal for professionals working from home, or professionals who want to be close to the vibrancy of Woolwich, Greenwich and other very busy parts of London, but who want to return to a large quiet house in a peaceful, green, well kept part of the world.

For clinical and administrative staff employed at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, the journey to or from work is no more than a five minute bus journey or a 15 minute brisk walk.

For parents of school age children, the property has the size, storage and facilities to accommodate happily large and growing families, and further benefits from proximity to outstanding state schools.

The garden will appeal to parents of young children, pet owners, keen gardeners who want to preserve the garden as it is or reinvent it, or anyone who appreciates the benefits of unwinding in their own restful green space.
