The Property

Some homes have character. Some have history. 400 Shooters Hill Road has both.



Originally constructed in 1863, this distinctive former pumping station has been thoughtfully transformed into a wonderful contemporary home while retaining the character and architectural individuality of the original building.



The heart of the house is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, where lofted ceilings create an exceptional sense of height, light and volume.



The spacious contemporary kitchen features a substantial central island, generous preparation space and extensive storage, flowing naturally into the dining and living areas to create a fantastic environment for both everyday family life and entertaining.



There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, together with a separate utility area and a large amount of additional loft storage positioned above the bedroom accommodation, providing valuable practical storage without compromising the principal living spaces.



Additional Key Features

- Two useful garden sheds/outbuildings providing excellent additional storage

- Ideal storage for bicycles, garden equipment, lawnmowers and sports equipment

- Extensive loft storage above the bedroom accommodation

- Private fenced gardens wrapping around three sides of the house

- Attractive established gardens with a variety of mature and exotic planting

- Overall landholding in excess of 450 sqm

- Excellent outdoor entertaining and family space

- Two allocated parking spaces adjacent to the property

- Previous planning permission granted for a substantial garden outbuilding*



Gardens & Outside Space



Outside, the house is surrounded on three sides by generous, private and securely fenced gardens, creating a wonderful environment for family life.



The established gardens feature a variety of mature and exotic planting, giving the outside space considerable character and providing an attractive backdrop to the historic building.



There is ample room for children to play, dogs to run around and family and friends to enjoy the outdoors, together with excellent areas for summer dining, barbecues and entertaining.



Two existing garden sheds/outbuildings provide valuable additional storage, with plenty of room for bicycles, lawnmowers, gardening equipment, sports equipment and the everyday items that come with family life. This is complemented by the extensive loft storage available within the house.



The overall landholding extends to in excess of 450 sqm, incorporating the additional parcels forming part of the aggregated title, while two allocated parking spaces are conveniently positioned adjacent to the property.



Adding further interest, the property has also previously benefited from planning permission for a substantial approximately 4m x 7m outbuilding positioned along the eastern garden boundary.*



This provides an interesting indication of how the generous outside space has previously been considered for additional ancillary accommodation, subject to any purchaser obtaining the necessary fresh planning and other consents.



* Previous planning permission has now lapsed. Buyers should make their own enquiries with the Royal Borough of Greenwich regarding any future proposal or reinstatement of consent.



Location & History



400 Shooters Hill Road forms part of a fascinating piece of local history. The former pumping station was built by the Kent Waterworks Company in 1863 and later became associated with the wider historic Brook Hospital site.



Today, it sits within easy walking distance of Woolwich Common, Oxleas Wood and Severndroog Castle, offering an unusual combination of London connectivity and extensive nearby green space.



Woolwich provides excellent transport connections via the Elizabeth line, DLR and National Rail, while Blackheath and Greenwich are also within easy reach.



For its current owners, 400 has been a much-loved family home and is now being reluctantly offered for sale for another family to enjoy and become the next custodians of this special piece of Shooters Hill history.



A genuinely individual home combining history, architecture, space and modern family living – viewing is highly recommended.
