House For Sale £1,650,000
"105 King George Street was built sometime between 1805 and 1810.
At the time, there were very few houses on the street. It was a purpose-built public house, and remained so until The Blitz of World War II.
Novelist Joseph Conrad (allegedly) used it was a setting.
In the early 1960’s, our Mother, Father, and Grandmother joined forces to take it in hand, and convert it into a family home. They undertook restoration and large elements of what used to be called a ‘modernist conversion’, of which the downstairs kitchen is the most successful example.
Since the conversion, it was a very roomy and happy home for about 60 years. We were lucky to grow up in this house, and we are still finding out just how special it is.”
What The Agent Says -
Offered to the market for the first time in over 60 years, this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire this double-fronted Georgian period house, dating all the way back to the early 1800's.
Originally 'The Woodman' pub, it remained so until the early 1950’s – and was purchased a few years later, being transformed into a family home. Requiring extensive modernisation throughout and totalling in excess of 3500 Sq. Ft (including the cellars), this is not for the faint-hearted.
Houses of this magnitude are becoming increasingly scarce, and this is a wonderful opportunity for a buyer to create their dream family home for years to come.
The property is completely flexible, with ample space to provide a desired number of bedrooms, reception rooms and bathrooms. King George Street is considered one of the most desirable residential addresses in West Greenwich, offering peace and tranquillity; yet you are just 100 yards away from Greenwich Royal Park. Specialist shops on Royal Hill include a butchers, greengrocers, fishmongers and cheese shop, all just minutes away from your doorstep. Just further ahead, you can find the historic Greenwich village and Greenwich Mainline/DLR stations – for easy access to the city and Canary Wharf.
All in all, we cannot overstate what a fabulous opportunity this is and with no chain early viewings are highly recommended.
