1 Bedroom Apartment

Guide Price £550,000-£575,000. Set on the first floor of one of Blackheath’s most iconic addresses, this elegant one bedroom apartment forms part of the magnificent Paragon crescent and enjoys wonderful proportions, beautiful natural light and far-reaching views over the Heath.

The Paragon is an exceptional Grade I listed crescent of houses linked by colonnades fronting a private roadway off the Heath and built around 1798 by Michael Searles, having been the subject of post war restoration by Bernard Brown. The Paragon is described by Professor Abercrombie as the most important surviving example of Georgian architecture in the country.

Extending to approximately 591 sq ft, the flat offers a well-balanced layout with a particularly impressive sitting/dining room at its heart. This is a superb reception space with a striking curved bay, high ceilings, large sash windows and a handsome fireplace, creating a room of real character and scale that is ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The outlook from here is especially appealing, with open views across the Heath adding to the sense of space and grandeur.

The bedroom is a generous double and features an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and shelving, making excellent use of the space. The separate kitchen is smartly arranged and well equipped, while the shower room is presented in a clean, contemporary style. A welcoming entrance hall completes the accommodation.

To the rear are vast and outstanding, south facing landscaped communal gardens and residents also benefit from permit parking to the front.
