Formerly the site of the Royal Navy's gunpowder store, this combination of new structures and historic buildings is giving the riverside neighbourhood of Woolwich a welcome shot in the arm. Many heritage features have been preserved, providing a tranquil atmosphere for busy professionals living and renting in London. Landscaped gardens open onto the Thames pathway, leading to a river taxi pier and a free ferry service across to East London. Residents enjoy superb views of London's entertainment landmark, the O2 as well as the engineering marvel that is the Thames Barrier.

 
Residents at Royal Arsenal Riverside have access to a private gym, bike storage and a 24 hour Concierge service. Other useful amenities include a coffee shop, grocery store and bar/restaurant. The O2 Centre, just a five minute boat ride away, contains dozens of quality restaurants and a multiplex cinema in addition to a globally famous music venue.

Woolwich is an area that is about to become a key part of the Capital's latest transport initiative. The new Elizabeth Line (Crossrail) will run high speed trains to Canary Wharf, the City and the West End and will slash commuter times in half while also providing a direct link to Heathrow Airport. With London City Airport just a few minutes away on the DLR network, Woolwich is set to become as equally well connected as neighbouring Greenwich. An Overground route to London Bridge and Waterloo is another quick and easy route into the Square Mile.
