Description
Property Reference Number: 100283.
**This property Is currently on the market for sale, so Is available for a 6-month rolling contract**
This exceptional two-bedroom flat sits at the top of a two storey block, of the beautiful Grade ii-listed, mid-Victorian complex, well known in the area as Royal Herbert Pavillions.
Its spectacular history precedes the charm of the flat itself. Built in 1865 for the Woolwich Garrison, the Royal Herbert Hospital, was the first monument to the formidable Florence Nightingale.
The flat is quietly positioned amid leafy grounds by the Shooters Hill cross roads with Well Hall Road, with easy access on foot to transport links on Well Hall Road and Shooters Hill through private coded access gates.
Nestled in a peaceful corner of one of the rear wings opening out to the private gardens, the flat spreads spaciously across one floor, covering approximately 810 sq ft internally.
While the owners have added unique decorative touches that make it stand out from the other flats in the area, it still retains its period charms, including huge sash windows and soaring ceilings, which were integral to the original design, ensuring maximum daylight, fresh air intake and gorgeous views.
The shared entrance and staircase are immaculately kept, featuring full building height windows, allowing light to stream through even on the dreariest of days.
Once inside the flat the short hallway leads immediately off to the second bedroom on the left. The room has a huge sash window, cleverly constructed floor to ceiling storage and a mezzanine level for a work or creative space.
Beneath the mezzanine there is more storage and plenty space for a king size bed. The only room in the flat to be decorated in white, it has a nice, airy, energising flow to it.
Above the hallway ceiling, between the second bedroom and the kitchen, there is more storage in the loft, with clever access from either the bedroom or the kitchen.
Continuing down the hallway, to the right is the unique kitchen with five point Smeg cooker & oven. Two small decorative feature windows, adorned with ornately carved wooden surrounds, look through into the living area. A high ceiling again allows for a roomy feel to this space.
Opposite the kitchen is the black, slate-clad bathroom, complete with an intricate mirror. The long bath sits adjacent to a fully tiled slate wall with brick effect. The dark décor provides a serene yet sumptuous sanctuary to relax in.
Continuing down the hallway, off to the right leads to the living/dining area and to the left the main bedroom.
Connecting the two is a charming, reclaimed vintage, hand carved, Indian double door. Both rooms mirror each other in that they both have huge sash windows almost reflecting light back to one another, illuminating the space from either side of the building.
Both rooms are decorated in dark grey but the light flowing through the space gives an otherworldly, calm feel.
The fireplace in the lounge is no longer connected to the chimney but, instead provides an attractive central feature, now adorned by an original, Parisian stone mantel piece.
Through the reclaimed wooden doors to the master bedroom, there is more than enough space for a super king size bed, wardrobe and drawers. Alternatively, this space could also be used as a second reception room, leaving the second bedroom by the entrance the sole, main bedroom of the flat. You have options.
While the dramatic dark interiors with the unique Indian carpentry are striking they do not detract from the original features. The hard wooden floors throughout give a seamless, expansive sense to the entire space and the windows illuminate the entire space.
The outdoor private communal gardens are an oasis of calm to escape hectic London life. The tennis courts are located outdoors amid the immaculately kept grounds. The pool, sauna, steam room, pub and gym are all a very short walk to the other side of the complex from the flat, accessed via a glass corridor.
