Mycenae House is a former convent building adjacent to the Georgian villa of Woodlands House, in Mycenae Road, Westcombe Park, Blackheath.

Woodlands House and surrounding land was acquired by a Catholic novitiate order, the Little Sisters of the Assumption, after the end of the First World War. Proceeds from the sale of part of the land were used to fund construction of a novitiate house, which opened in 1933.

After the Sisters vacated the properties in 1967, the house became a community centre.
