Set within the gated, Grade II‑listed Royal Military Academy, this rare triplex flat occupies almost 1,400 sq ft and overlooks the restored cricket pitch. The apartment's dramatic 4.85m living‑room ceiling, large period windows and mezzanine bedroom create a distinctive, airy home with real character. Allocated off‑street parking, communal gardens, daytime concierge and residents’ gym add practical day‑to‑day convenience.
The layout suits a couple or growing family seeking generous, characterful living close to central transport links. The property offers two very large bedrooms, two en‑suite bathrooms, an additional WC and a private lower‑ground patio, plus flexible reception space ideal for entertaining. A long 233‑year lease and recent sensitively managed refurbishment provide security and heritage quality.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: the building's listed status restricts alterations and may complicate works; the service charge is above average (£6,164 pa) and ground rent is £350 pa. The immediate area records very high crime levels and local deprivation indicators higher than average — factors to weigh for family safety and insurance costs.
Transport connections are strong: Woolwich Arsenal DLR and the Elizabeth Line give fast links to Canary Wharf and central London, while excellent mobile signal supports remote working. Broadband speeds are average. Overall, this is a distinctive, heritage apartment for buyers who value space, history and secure gated living and who accept listed‑building constraints and higher running costs.
