"Ivy Cottage" takes its name from an old ivy tree which once stood proud in front of the property. Built around 1860, the early Victorian cottage is understood to have been built for a local ship captain.

An exquisite blend of old and new, Ivy Cottage has been completely but sympathetically renovated by the current owners. They have sought to highlight impressive original features such as detailed cornicing, original sash windows with boxed shutters and original flooring, whilst providing a stylish, contemporary kitchen and bathroom. In addition, the property offers through reception rooms, a utility room with ground floor cloakroom, two double bedrooms and a sunny, west-facing garden which extends to 60ft.

The location is ideal, tucked away on a peaceful road yet close to important amenities. Charlton Station (Zone 3) can be found under half a mile away and offers fast, direct train routes to London Bridge, Cannon Street, Waterloo East and Charing Cross. Beautiful Greenwich and Blackheath are minutes away. Furthermore, buses run from the end of Charlton Lane, linking with the London Underground for easy access to Canary Wharf (under 30 mins) and central London.

The Village with its shops and newly opened gastropub are within easy walking distance, as are a host of green spaces: Maryon Wilson Park with its deer and Charlton Park with its imposing Jacobean mansion are real highlights. It is also worth noting that the area is to benefit from substantial investment through the new Charlton Riverside development.

The current owners have loved living here and note in particular the friendly community feel to this part of Charlton Lane. Viewing is highly recommended.
