Foxes Dale, Blackheath, London, SE3

A highly sought after four/five bedroom, three storey Span house in need of modernisation and found on this popular road within the prestigious Cator Estate. As one of the largest Span houses available, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and comprises; two entrance halls with great storage and downstairs WC, a spacious kitchen and large 16’9 x 15’11 reception room. The first floor offers a lot of versatility and is currently arranged as three bedrooms/studies with a cloakroom (WC) and there are three further rooms/bedrooms to the top floor with storage areas and bathroom. Outside, there is a good sized private walled garden with patio and flower beds which has been professionally landscaped and maintained. The property also benefits from two garages, one self contained, opening onto a garage court, and the other, used as a home office, accessed directly from the garden, onto which it has a window. This house is part of a friendly community of 13 Span houses, with an active residents' association including architects and designers who all work hard and enthusiastically to maintain the Span ethos. The residents' association is responsible for external decoration and the front gardens, both to a high standard, as well as trees of the communal grounds and woodland area, and it replaced and upgraded all the roofs to modern insulation levels. Eric Lyons’s Span houses are all about space and light, and blurring the edges between the outside and indoor. This is a wonderful home with excellent potential and your immediate viewing is essential. Foxes Dale falls within the prestigious private Cator Estate and located just 0.3 miles from Blackheath Village with its array of bars, restaurants, boutique shops, farmers market and mainline station. The fabulous Royal Greenwich Park is just 0.65 miles with Greenwich town centre beyond. Greenwich maintains a quaint rural village feel and is steeped in history from the old Royal Naval Hospital, the Royal Observatory, the National Maritime Museum, and the spectacularly restored Cutty Sark, the last of the great tea clippers.

Surrounding the market, you'll find characterful boutiques and independent shops offering everything from toys and clothes to organic fruit and veg, artisan breads and cheeses.
