Set across the entire second floor of a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, this exceptionally large two-bedroom apartment offers a rare combination of period charm and flexible living space. High ceilings, tall sash windows and an impressive 29ft reception/dining room create a bright, airy interior with uninterrupted views across mature gardens toward the heath and Greenwich Park.
Accommodation is generous throughout — two double bedrooms (both over 15ft) and two bathrooms, a separate kitchen and wide entrance hall provide scope for modern living and easy entertaining. There is clear potential to reconfigure the plan into a three-bedroom layout or to add bespoke storage in the broad hallways, subject to listed-building consents.
Practical matters are straightforward: gas central heating, excellent broadband and strong mobile signal. However, the home is leasehold with about 100 years remaining, a small ground rent and service charge payable "as and when." The Grade II listing also imposes restrictions and may complicate alterations. Council tax is in a higher band, and the solid brick construction suggests limited cavity insulation unless upgraded sympathetically under listed constraints.
Positioned moments from Blackheath Village and excellent rail connections, this apartment suits buyers seeking generous, characterful living space with scope for adaptation, particularly families or professionals wanting direct access to open green space and central London links.
