The historic Royal Herbert Pavilions is steeped in history as the country's first purpose built military hospital designed by Florence Nightingale. Converted in 1995 it is now a sought-after private development built upon a 7-acre plot surrounded by beautiful, landscaped gardens, including a residents' tennis court, which creates an oasis of calm to escape hectic London life.
The primary access to the property is from the Broad Walk via its own gated entrance (with intercom) onto a private driveway, with ample parking for your car and visitors' cars. Steps lead to a private patio area, which surrounds the house.
The accommodation comprises, on the ground floor, a reception room with feature period fireplace and wood laminate floor; kitchen with range of wall and base units, integrated oven and hob and washing machine and completing the floor a family bathroom with bath, sink with vanity unit for storage and w.c. On the first floor there are two bedrooms with the primary bedroom featuring impressive skylight windows allowing light to pour in; a shower room with w.c. completes the internal accommodation.
Externally there is an extensive patio area with raised beds, a brick-built BBQ, plus a wooden shed, providing your own secluded haven within the grounds of the Pavilions.
The Pavilions are a community of their own, with exclusive resident facilities that include onsite concierge, indoor swimming pool, whirlpool, sauna, steam room, gymnasium (which has recently undergone refurbishment) tennis court and residents' bar. While to the rear of the development there are extensive, communal grounds which the house looks out upon.
This location on Shooters Hill is surrounded by open green spaces which include Oxleas Woods, Blackheath, Woolwich Common and Greenwich Park. There are many places worth a visit such as a community hub at Shrewsbury house within the Laing estate with its café and regular activities; tea rooms in the tranquil setting of Severndroog castle; a café atop of Oxleas Woods, 16th Century Tudor Barn Eltham and Jacobean Charlton House and Gardens.
There is an abundance of shopping options in the surrounding area with Greenwich Shopping Park, Sainsburys at Eltham, Co-op a short walk away on Shooters Hill, M&S at Blackheath Standard for supermarkets. There is also a range of boutique shops and restaurants nearby in Blackheath and Greenwich.
It is well connected with a wide range of transport options including bus networks, with night buses, the Jubilee Line, DLR and mainline overground connections to central London. Shooters Hill is circa 35 minutes to the City via Elizabeth Line at Woolwich and circa 45 minutes to the City from Eltham or Woolwich Arsenal Stations. Kidbrooke and Blackheath Stations are a short bus ride away.
Recently redecorated inside and out it offers vacant possession and is ready to move into.
A rare opportunity not to be missed, we highly recommend viewing at your earliest convenience.
