Area The Royal Arsenal is a former munitions factory & storage facility with a history dating back to 1671, that is being tastefully transformed to provide a blend of converted & new build residential properties, together with a central open space, bars, restaurants and an hotel.
Beautifully landscaped, the builder has taken great care to create a development that is a pleasure to live in, rather than yet another sterile 'stack of boxes'.
It retains a real sense of community yet retains a high degree of peace and tranquility, away from the 'big smoke'.
The development currently offers * 24 Concierge & Security * Four on site gyms * Two Youngs "gastro pubs" The Dial Arch & The Guardhouse * Salt Craft Beer & Pizzeria * Sushi Bar * Chinese Restaurant * Five on site cafés * Two theatres * Health Centre * Chemist * Dentist * Tesco Express * M&S Food Hall * Sainsburys * Dry Cleaning service * Zipcar Car Sharing Club * Fortnightly Farmers Market Situated east of Greenwich, adjacent to Woolwich Town Centre (offering an array of main street shopping and a vibrant street market) the development is easily reached by road & rail.

25 minutes, via the Main Line. London City Airport can also be reached in as little as 5 minutes via the DLR, with Stratford also accessible in approx. 20 minutes.
