Situated within an elegant and rarely available landmark terrace, this beautifully maintained four-storey Captain's house has been thoughtfully updated whilst preserving its wealth of period character. The most recent enhancement includes the addition of stylish herringbone flooring to the lower ground floor, complementing the home's timeless Regency elegance.

This impressive Grade II listed Regency residence is arranged over four floors and offers beautifully proportioned and well-balanced accommodation throughout. The property comprises four generous double bedrooms, three bathrooms, an elegant dual-aspect reception room on the entrance level, and a spacious open-plan kitchen and family room on the lower ground floor, creating an exceptional space for both everyday family living and entertaining.

To the rear, the property enjoys an outstanding 110ft mature garden, providing a peaceful and private oasis. Beautifully landscaped with an extensive variety of established trees, shrubs and flowering plants, the garden has been carefully designed to provide year-round colour and seasonal interest, while also incorporating a productive vegetable garden.

Occupying one of the most sought-after residential roads within the prestigious Blackheath Conservation Area, the property is ideally positioned approximately half a mile from the heart of Blackheath Village. Renowned for its charming atmosphere, the village offers an excellent selection of independent boutiques, cafés, acclaimed restaurants, traditional pubs, delicatessens, and everyday amenities, together with highly regarded state and independent schools.

Blackheath Station is approximately 800 metres and provides frequent Southeastern services to London Bridge in around 15 minutes, with direct connections to Cannon Street, Charing Cross and Victoria, making the property particularly well suited to commuters. The Docklands Light Railway is also easily accessible from nearby Lewisham, offering swift connections to Canary Wharf, the City and Stratford. An extensive network of local bus routes serves the area, while the A2, A20 and South Circular provide excellent road links into Central London, Kent and the M25.
