Description

Exceptional, 1,900 sq. ft. two-bedroom, two-reception loft apartment within Greenwich Academy – an iconic Grade II-listed school conversion, ideally located between Blackheath Village and Greenwich town centre. As one of the most sought-after loft developments in the area, this property combines architectural heritage with modern living. Formerly the West Greenwich Secondary School, the building was originally constructed in 1874 by renowned architects E.R. Robson and J.J. Stevenson, who pioneered elements of what later evolved into the Queen Anne style. The school’s non-gothic brick design, a departure from the era’s traditional architecture, was commissioned following the Education Act of 1870. Set on the first floor, this outstanding residence spans over 1,900 sq. ft., showcasing original schoolhouse features, including exposed brickwork, towering 4.34-meter ceilings, and expansive classroom windows. The interiors feel open and airy, capturing the essence of loft living. The first living room, flooded with natural light from its large south-facing windows, offers enchanting views of the beautifully maintained communal gardens, creating a peaceful, light-filled environment. The second living room, seamlessly connected to the dining area, is complemented by a bespoke walnut kitchen – a perfect blend of design and functionality. Two mezzanine-level bedrooms offer both privacy and style, with each providing access to a well-appointed bathroom, while an additional bathroom is located on the lower level. The property’s thoughtfully designed layout highlights its distinctive features, offering generous, flexible spaces ideal for tailored living. Residents enjoy access to the lush communal gardens, a quiet retreat within this vibrant urban environment. The apartment also benefits from a share of the freehold and an allocated off-street parking space. Situation Greenwich Academy is within easy walking distance of the shops, bars, restaurants, and cultural landmarks of both Greenwich Village and the historic Greenwich Park. Excellent transport links, including Deptford Bridge DLR, Greenwich Station (DLR and National Rail), and New Cross (London Overground), make this location highly convenient for city living.
