A bright one-bedroom first-floor conversion set within a handsome former military academy, this 573 sq ft flat blends period character with practical city living. The living/dining room and fitted kitchen give a comfortable, flexible layout for a single professional or couple. Shared Victorian-style courtyard gardens and off-street residents’ parking add outdoor space and convenience rarely found at this price.
The flat is offered chain free and sits close to Woolwich Arsenal and Woolwich Dockyard stations, including the Elizabeth Line—fast links to Canary Wharf and central London make commuting straightforward. Service charge and ground rent are payable; the lease has about 89 years remaining.
Buyers should note the property is Grade II listed, so external and many internal alterations will require listed-building consent. The building is solid brick with assumed no wall insulation and currently single glazing; the heating is gas boiler and radiators. These features preserve period charm but limit straightforward modernisation and energy-efficiency upgrades without appropriate permissions.
This is a good opportunity for a buyer seeking an affordable, characterful London home or an investor targeting strong rental demand from nearby transport links and local amenities. Factor in the listed status, current glazing and insulation, and the ongoing service charge when assessing renovation plans and running costs.
