Plumstead is South East London’s hidden gem - offering residents a mix of affordability, convenience and a strong sense of community. Located South of Woolwich, this area is sought after by many for its lifestyle and convenient access to central London.

Benham & Reeves’ nearby Woolwich office is perfectly positioned to assist you with the Plumstead property market. Whether you’d like a welcoming family home or a rental investment, our experienced agents will assist you with finding your dream property in this growing area.

Plumstead is a slightly more affordable option compared to nearby Greenwich and Blackheath. It particularly appeals to first-time buyers, thanks to ongoing regeneration, improved transport links and modern residents’ amenities rapidly driving up property values. Families are attracted to Plumstead for its highly rated schools, many of which have received 'Good' or 'Outstanding' Ofsted ratings.

There are vast green spaces for walks, picnics and outdoor sports, including Plumstead Common and Winn’s Common. The nearby Slade Ravine is perfect for a more tranquil woodland retreat. Plumstead played a significant role in the early years of Arsenal Football Club, founded here before moving to North London.

Architecturally, Plumstead offers buyers a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, particularly around the High Street and railway station. The nearby Royal Arsenal Riverside development in Woolwich offers modern apartments with Thames views. Commuters are well-connected with Plumstead Station offering direct rail services to London Bridge, Cannon Street and Charing Cross.

The nearby Elizabeth Line (Crossrail) from Woolwich is a game-changer, offering high-speed connections to Canary Wharf in under 8 minutes and access to central London and Heathrow Airport. Local bus routes and cycle paths further enhance connectivity.

In terms of real estate, this area’s ongoing development presents exciting opportunities for homebuyers and investors. Contact our office if Plumstead’s family-friendly atmosphere, vibrant culture, investment potential and convenient location appeal to you.

Where do you live? I am Malaysian Chinese and moved to the UK some years ago and at the moment, I live in Surrey, close to the river and surrounded by beautiful countryside.

What do you like most about Woolwich? Woolwich is well connected to both of London's financial hubs and the area has a good mix of modern architecture and carefully restored Grade II listed buildings. Royal Arsenal Riverside is a pivotal part of local life with commanding views of the Thames. It has a strong community spirit and is surrounded by great amenities so it’s a great place to live and to work.

What are your passions outside work? My true passion is cars and racing. Back in Malaysia I used to compete in the 12 hour Endurance Race in Sepang. I was also a team manager for the Bridgestone racing team. I also love getting out with the family at weekends.
Where do you currently live? I have lived here in Woolwich for the last 17 years.

What do you like most about working in the Woolwich area? Woolwich is home to a diverse community and has really been transformed with the introduction of Royal Arsenal Riverside. Connectivity with the rest of London is excellent with four main transport links into central London, Kent, Essex and the opposite side of the River. There’s a good mix of gastro pubs and restaurants along the riverside which adds variety to what is already a thriving modern urban neighbourhood.

Tell me a little about your property career? I began my property career in 2014 assisting with marketing and sales administration for an estate agent in nearby Charlton. I then moved into lettings and property management which I really enjoyed. I have lots of experience liaising with tenants and landlords throughout the renting process and enjoy meeting people from all walks of life so this role really suits me.

What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I am a mother to five wonderful sons and grandmother to two adorable boys, so my family keep me on my toes which I wouldn’t change! When I do have time, I like to read or go for a nice stroll with my dog.

Where do you live? I've lived in East London for the last few years.

Tell us something about your career? I worked in finance for four years before joining Benham and Reeves in 2011 where I worked in the short lets department. My background in lettings puts me in a great position to spot a good investment property and I really enjoy working with homeowners and investors, helping them reach their purchase objectives.

And an interesting fact about yourself? I have an Engineering Degree from India and an MBA from Manchester but I love working in property and seeing new buildings go up in London which is exciting. It’s a great place to live and work.
What is your favourite part of London? Covent Garden for its buzz, the market and stunning architecture, it’s such a hidden gem.

What key skills do you bring to your role at B&R? I have worked in the property industry for seven years, first as a reservations manager for serviced apartments and then with Benham and Reeves as a lettings administrator which has helped form the ground work for my current role assisting the salesforce. Efficiency is my watch-word and I like to reflect this in all my tasks. I have a keen eye for detail and also enjoy taking on new challenges.

What are your passions outside work for relaxation? I love catching up with family and friends and my other passions are dance and singing in a London choir.
