“The first of Span's developments in Blackheath Park, on the sought-after Cator Estate"
This sympathetically renovated two-bedroom apartment, built by renowned architects Span in 1956, is positioned on the sought-after Cator Estate. The current owners have thoughtfully redesigned the interiors with its mid-century origins in mind, employing a simple palette of plywood and Corian against a neutral backdrop of white-washed walls throughout. Many original features remain, including the generous single-paned windows and door furniture. Set amongst beautifully landscaped gardens, The Priory occupies a particularly private and peaceful spot much loved by its residents, just a short walk from Blackheath Village and Blackheath Station for connections to Ccntral London.

History
The Cator Estate is made up of 282 acres of private roads and features architectural jewels from all ages, from classical villas built at its inception in the late Georgian period, to the modernism of Lyons’s Span Housing. Graham Morrison of Allies & Morrison Architects, who bought a Span House in the early 1980s, describes the joy of living on the Cator Estate: “I find it hard to imagine a more pleasant and safe place, so close to the city, in which to bring up young children. A shared garden made the making of friends easy and a sensible management structure helped to ensure the maintenance of not only the buildings and gardens but also the aims of the community.”
