Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, built 1790
A substantial Grade II listed Georgian townhouse dating from the 1790s, arranged over four generous floors and offering approximately 2,364 sq ft of living space. The house retains high ceilings, sash windows, cornicing and feature fireplaces, with a principal suite, three further bedrooms and two bathrooms — a rare, roomy family layout in central Greenwich. The lower-ground eat-in kitchen and separate utility provide practical family living, while multiple reception rooms suit entertaining and flexible working-from-home arrangements.
Externally, the east-facing private rear garden of about 70 feet is a standout asset — private, sunny in the mornings and large enough for children’s play, dining and planting. Residents also benefit from access to the enclosed, landscaped private park and convenient on-street parking within the circus setting. Transport links are strong: DLR, mainline stations and river services are within easy walking distance for direct City and Canary Wharf commutes.
Important points to note: Grade II listed status means external and many internal changes will require consent and could complicate upgrades. The property’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, so refurbishment to improve thermal performance may be needed. Council Tax is in a very high band and the immediate area records higher crime levels than average, which some buyers may wish to consider alongside the location benefits.
This home will suit a family seeking a prestigious, characterful residence in central Greenwich with a large private garden and excellent transport. It will also appeal to buyers prepared to respect listed constraints and to invest selectively in insulation or modernisation to improve comfort and running costs.
