The development was built in the 1930’s by a well-known house builder of that time, John Laing and Son. Today the “Laing estate” is better known as the Shrewsbury Park conservation area. It’s a green and leafy suburban location within the Shooters Hill area of SE18.

Within the development is the grade II listed Shrewsbury House a renowned local community and arts centre.

The area lends itself well to someone seeking a quiet retreat within a commutable distance to London, with many recreational activities to hand including the Shooters Hill Golf and Tennis Clubs, Oxleas Wood, Severndroog castle, plus Foxcroft and Shrewsbury Parks.

There is a good selection of schools within the locale including Plumcroft, Eglinton, Notre Dame R.C. and Christ Church. With the option of grammar schools in the neighbouring Bexley borough, due to its close proximity.

For commuters, there are several options depending on the desired route. Most take advantage of a local bus service direct to Woolwich Arsenal for over ground connections into London Bridge, Cannon Street and Charing Cross or the DLR into the Docklands or City Airport. Woolwich will hopefully soon have the addition of a Crossrail station increasing its appeal for the commuter.

Furthermore the property is located within access to local shops, bus routes and cycle ways.

This is one home that should not be missed.
