There is a large family bathroom upstairs too with walk in shower, large jacuzzi bath and underfloor heating. There are very partial views over London but you can see lights sparkling over Essex! The hot water is supplied by megaflo system which means pressure is awesome too. This is definate advantage as no one ever wants to get out of the shower especially when they are singing along to the music which comes out of the in-built bathroom speaker system.

Finally to outside is a spilt level garden with patio and shed (with some gardening equipment) to higher level and herb garden to lower level with greenhouse. It is a low maintenance garden. The garden is completely secluded and looks out onto small woodland which is home to a woodpecker which can often be seen from bathroom window along with some colourful parakeets now and again. There is off street parking to the front of the house.

Local points of interest: 15 walk to cafe with hilltop views over Kent, 20 minute walk to city farm, adjacent to London green chain walk, close to O2, amazing views over London in whole locality, lots of green parks, close to golf club and private tennis club and I can also share with you the local secret area to go blackberry picking . Bluewater is about 20 min drive away and it is easy to get train to Kent coast or Bluewater too. WIthin an hour's drive is Royal Tunbridge Wells and Canterbury which are great places to visit.

Celia Fiennes, who in 1697 proceeded out of London along the Dover Road, wrote in her diary of stopping at "Shuttershill, on top of which hill you see a vast prospect ...some lands clothed with trees, others with grass and flowers, gardens, orchards, with all sorts of herbage and tillage, with severall little towns all by the river, Erith, Leigh, Woolwich etc., quite up to London, Greenwich, Deptford, Black Wall, the Thames twisting and turning it self up and down bearing severall vessells and men of warre on it".

As the name also implies, the district is centred upon a hill - one of the highest points in London 129 metres (423 ft) [1] - offering good views over the River Thames to the north, with central London clearly visible to the west. Oxleas Wood remains a public open space close to the top of the hill; there is also a golf-course and one of the last remaining areas of farmland in inner London, Woodlands Farm (now an educational charity).

Shooter's Hill Road stretches eastwards from the heath at Blackheath up and over the hill, initially as part of the A2 road and then the A207. The road follows the route of Watling Street, a Roman Road linking London with Roman settlements in north Kent. This was used as a route for horse-drawn mail-coaches linking London with Dover
Now a great link road into Central London
