About this property

A once in a generation opportunity to acquire this Grade II-listed Queen Anne house located on what is arguably West Greenwich's most desirable road opposite Greenwich Park. The house measures just under 7000sq ft internally with a private rear garden just under half an acre.

A once in a generation opportunity to acquire this stunning Grade II-listed Queen Anne house, built in the early 18th century and offered to the market for the first time in nearly 70 years. The house stands in a prominent position on Crooms Hill, considered by many as West Greenwich's most desirable street, and is located within the Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site. Set back off the road with the front forecourt surrounded by cast iron railings, there is parking for multiple vehicles and three separate garages. The double-height entrance hall provides a sense of grandeur with elaborate cornicing, cornice brackets and a sweeping staircase. The front dining room and main reception room provide an array of original features including exposed wooden flooring, original fireplaces with surrounds, sash windows, period cornicing and high ceilings throughout. Both the main reception room and kitchen provide views across the stunning rear garden with the kitchen accessing the garden down cast iron steps. The garden is the largest you will find in West Greenwich, spanning just under half an acre of mature flowerbeds, shrubs, trees and seating areas providing a secluded and leafy oasis of which surely only a handful exist across London. The sweeping staircase leads you up to the first floor which provides three spacious bedrooms and an ensuite bathroom for the principal bedroom. There is a separate self-contained one bedroom apartment on the top floor featuring original exposed wooden panelling and stunning views of both Greenwich Park and the rear garden. On the lower ground floor of the house is a further two bedroom self-contained apartment; while there is also a wing to the side of the house with a kitchen, two further bedrooms, a family-size bathroom and a second original staircase giving access to every level of the property. While the house has clearly been well loved throughout the current ownership, restoration will be required by the next custodian of the house, providing a unique opportunity to upgrade one of the area’s largest and most distinct properties while retaining much of its history of over 300 years.

Situation
The property is located at the bottom of Crooms Hill, a historical and highly desirable road sweeping along the west side of Greenwich Park. Greenwich Park is located directly opposite the property while Greenwich Town Centre and Greenwich Market are within moments providing an array of local shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs for residents to enjoy. Both Greenwich Mainline Station and the Cutty Sark DLR are a short walk away providing a swift commute to Canary Wharf and the City. There are a number of well-regarded local schools and childcare options. Greenwich is an area of historical importance and the property is ideally located for access to the Royal Maritime Museum, the Royal Observatory and the Old Royal Naval College to name a few.
