6 Reasons You Need To Know About This London Oasis
With award-winning green spaces and the irresistible offer of easy commutes to the rest of the city, Kidbrooke Village, London’s newest neighbourhood south of the river, looks like the perfect place to buy your dream home.
In Partnership With Berkeley
Nestled in one of London’s most sought-after addresses, the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Kidbrooke Village is a hidden gem that offers its community an oasis of calm within the city while still being close to the hustle and bustle of central London. Simply put, it’s the best of both worlds. So if you’re looking to step into a new home this summer that’s conveniently located, stress-free and elevates your lifestyle, Kidbrooke Village sounds like just the place for you.
Get the best of both worlds
An address like this ensures you can enjoy tranquil green spaces without being too far from the buzzing city life that London has to offer. Whether it’s visits to historic Blackheath with the family on a lovely sunny day, outings to see your favourite band play at the O2 (just a 12-minute drive) or a trip to a restaurant in central London that serves up your favourite cuisine, life in Kidbrooke Village makes it easy to embrace the best of the capital. Set amidst Royal Greenwich’s abundance of green spaces – including 86 acres of parkland and open space (that’s the size of 45 football fields), Kidbrooke Village’s zone 3 location means you can find peace among your natural surroundings, with the added benefit of having central London within easy reach.
Easy access to the rest of London
Getting to the rest of London is no problem here. Jet-setting off to Europe on a summer holiday? You will be happy to know that Heathrow is just 45 minutes away from Kidbrooke Village, and London City Airport just 20 minutes. Buses run regularly from Kidbrooke Village and there are plenty of safe cycle and pedestrian routes. The flourishing neighbourhood is well-connected to most of London’s business districts, and you can get to London Bridge, Waterloo East and Canary Wharf by train in less than 30 minutes.
At Kidbrooke Village, live a lifestyle, not just a life.
Live closer to nature
With nature at its heart, wellbeing comes first at Kidbrooke Village and you don’t have to travel to access the peace of the great outdoors. Sustainability is integral to life in SE3 and the development celebrates bringing people and nature together. The tranquil Cator and Sutcliffe Parks sit at the heart of the development, providing beautiful landscaped open spaces for those who live here. A recipient of the prestigious ‘Sir David Attenborough Award for Enhancing Biodiversity’, Kidbrooke Village has been designed to give its community the privilege of having meadows, rich wetlands and grasslands on their doorstep. Berkeley is heavily involved with not only creating a safe haven for people, but for nature too. The group works closely with the London Wildlife Trust to continually increase biodiversity and has been heavily involved in rewilding Cator Park, encouraging birds, mammals and insects to nest. Over 750 mature trees have been planted to date and the development has so far delivered a 100% biodiversity net gain which could rise as high as 250% in the coming years.

The luxury of peace of mind
Trust is key, whether you’re buying a home for the first time or you’ve done it before. Berkeley’s passion and purpose is to build high-quality homes, strengthen communities and make a lasting positive difference to people’s lives.
