This elegant 'stand-alone' house occupies a unique peaceful position in leafy Blackheath with extensive gardens to front and rear.
Built in 1805 the house has been the idyllic, much-loved home to the same family for the past forty years; and they have carried out careful and sympathetic renovation and restoration to preserve its heritage and character. This is a rare opportunity for the next generation to acquire one of the largest period houses in the vicinity of Blackheath Village.
Behind a carriage driveway filled with rhododendrons, it offers extensive off-street parking.
The accommodation is arranged over four floors and measures in excess of 6,210sq ft . The house offers spectacular proportions throughout, with high ceilings and large windows which allow natural light to flood in. It retains an abundance of period charm including original fireplaces, ornate cornicing, deep coving and working shutters.
The house is family friendly, and it has a self-contained one-bedroom garden apartment, with its own access, perfect for an au pair, a housekeeper or relative.
The house is entered through double front doors with an arched fanlight above, directly into a spacious entrance hall leading towards a beautiful staircase and doors that open onto the rear balustraded terrace with views and steps down to the garden.
The ground floor enjoys a mass of formal entertaining space including an attractive drawing room/dining room with an ornate ceiling and original marble fireplace, whilst full height windows overlook the picturesque garden. The sitting room is located on the other side of the house with a well-appointed kitchen between these two lovely rooms. A good-sized cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The lower floor offers more informal entertaining space with a television room which could also make a fantastic children's playroom, a study, a utility room, a useful storeroom, and cloakroom. Access can also be gained through to the self-contained apartment. At this level doors open to the front of the house and onto the garden at the rear.
The principal bedroom suite on the first floor comprises a large bedroom, a passageway behind the main staircase, leading to a generous bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, and an additional bathroom.
The second floor has four double bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The garden has been well cared for over the years with mature shrubs, and flower beds and is predominantly laid to lawn.
At the bottom of the garden is the detached garage with hard standing for two additional cars. This is accessed via Heath Lane.
Eliot Vale House is very well positioned on the quieter side of the Heath, close to the amenities of Blackheath village and the main line stations. Excellent public transport links are available from Blackheath Station (0.4 miles/c10 mins walk: Zone 3) or Lewisham Station (0.6mi / c15mins walk: Zone 2) - 12 mins to London Bridge and regular fast services to Cannon Street, Waterloo, Charing Cross andnd Victoria. Furthermore, the financial hub of Canary Wharf is a short car journey or via a direct DLR from Lewisham or the Jubilee Line service from Greenwich.
Blackheath retains a unique rural feel despite its close proximity to central London, Canary Wharf. It is within easy walking distance to Greenwich Park.
A number of good state and private schools are in the area.
