About the project

Royal Arsenal Riverside is Berkeley Group's neighbourhood on the River Thames in Woolwich, south-east London, built on the grounds of the old Royal Arsenal, where Henry VIII founded the Woolwich Dockyard in 1512. Twenty-five years on, it has a settled community, its own shops and a farmers' market twice a month. The apartments on this page are in four of its buildings: Sailors Wharf, Seafarers Wharf and Lantern Wharf in the West Quay gardens, and The Maribor beside Maribor Park. All are sold on a 999-year lease with a peppercorn ground rent.

The residences

Every home on sale has two bedrooms, with layouts from 773 to 847 sq ft (72 to 79 m2). Sailors Wharf, the westernmost building of West Quay, faces the sunset. E8 Architecture gave it dual-aspect apartments, private balconies and dark copper and bronze detailing, and the kitchens come with fully integrated appliances. The Maribor rises 17 floors in brick that echoes the listed buildings of the old Arsenal, and each of its apartments has a balcony of about 81 sq ft facing the Thames, Maribor Park or Beresford Street. Lantern Wharf has 15 levels. Seafarers Wharf, in the middle of West Quay, has dual-aspect windows and interiors that give Victorian design a modern twist.

Amenities

Residents share The Waterside Club, which Berkeley counts among London's largest residential leisure facilities: a 20-metre pool, spa pool, sauna, steam room, gym, treatment room, private cinema and a 24-hour concierge. The West Quay gardens are private to residents, and the four-acre Maribor Park carries streams and pools down to the riverside walk. The estate also has a yoga studio, a nursery, a medical centre, a dentist, supermarkets, cafés and pubs. Woolwich Works, a former carriage factory that now holds a 450-seat theatre, is a short walk away.

Location and payment plan

The Elizabeth Line station is on site, with trains to Canary Wharf in 8 minutes and Liverpool Street in 15, and Heathrow is under an hour away.

The developer

Berkeley Group
A London housebuilder that works on old industrial land: gasworks, an arsenal, a railway goods yard
Berkeley Group was founded in 1976 by Tony Pidgley and is based in Cobham, Surrey. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange and builds across London, Birmingham and the South of England, nine in ten of its homes on previously developed land. In the year to April 2026 it handed over 4,076 homes. Its London schemes are large and take years to finish, and three of the seven in our catalogue are built around Victorian gasholder frames that were kept rather than cleared. Berkeley works through its own companies, so the name on a brochure is often St George or St William rather than Berkeley itself.

About Woolwich

An old military and dockyard town on the Thames, now on the Elizabeth line and still rebuilding itself.

Woolwich is a riverside town in south east London, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, with more than a mile and a half of frontage on the south bank of the Thames. For centuries it belonged to the Crown: Henry VIII founded a royal dockyard here in 1512, and the munitions works next to it became the Royal Arsenal in 1805. The Arsenal was a closed military site for most of its life. Today its brick workshops and gun foundries have been restored as flats, offices and an arts venue, and new apartment buildings fill the land between them and the river at Royal Arsenal Riverside. Up the hill, the long Georgian front of the Royal Artillery Barracks faces Woolwich Common. The town centre around General Gordon Square and Powis Street is in the middle of its own overhaul. What changed Woolwich most was the arrival of the Elizabeth line in 2022: the station sits inside the Royal Arsenal, and trains reach Canary Wharf in about 8 minutes and Liverpool Street in about 15. The DLR, Southeastern trains, Thames river buses and the free Woolwich Ferry fill in the rest.
