Set within the former Green Hill Garrison School, this Grade II listed one-bedroom apartment combines period character with practical city living. The split-level layout offers a generous open-plan reception with high ceilings and tall sash windows, plus a mezzanine bedroom accessed by a spiral staircase. At approximately 490 sq ft, the layout suits a single person or couple seeking a characterful home or a city rental.
The flat is sold chain free with 175 years remaining on the lease, low ground rent (£50 pa) and an average service charge of £1,202 pa. Residents benefit from gated grounds and off-street parking. Transport links are a major asset: Woolwich station and the Elizabeth Line/DLR are within easy reach for fast connections to Canary Wharf, the City and the West End.
The apartment has been freshly painted but needs renovation to the kitchen and bathroom to reach its full potential. As a listed building, any external or structural changes will be subject to listed-building regulations and may restrict alterations and increase costs. The property sits in a deprived area with average crime levels, though mobile signal and broadband are strong.
Ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors who value period charm and location over a fully modern finish. The combination of long lease, low ground rent and proximity to excellent transport makes this a practical purchase, provided buyers factor in update costs and listed-status constraints.
