Development Summary - Click to Expand
Part of a major £1bn urban regeneration project, Kidbrooke Village is now a well-established and highly desireable community of four distinct neighbourhoods. The Square lies at the very heart of the development and will offer residential, commercial and lifestyle amenities, plus the most convenient transport links of the entire village.
A new focal point for the community, Birch House offers the very definition of contemporary living on a grand scale. With stunning views over the Capital, it is the unique shape and style that first draw the eye. Inspired by the birch trees that line the paths of Kidbrooke Village, Birch House is the centrepiece of the area.

Investment - This will change the fundamental, and allow your capital to grow.
Approved in 2009, a £1bn regeneration programme, supported by a £43m investment from the UK government’s Homes & Communities Agency (HCA), has completely transformed the Kidbrooke area from a once notorious housing estate to a welcoming village environment with renewed transport links and provision for retail, community and health facilities, a range of bars and restaurants and a 100-bed hotel.
An ambitious and award-winning regeneration strategy is in place in Kidbrooke that will create a self-contained and sustainable suburb with great importance placed on quality of life and environment.
The Ferrier estate is being replaced with a thriving community of 4,800 top quality homes, and 300,000 sq ft of commercial and retail space, as well as medical facilities and schools for residents, all woven within a network of pleasant green spaces and walking trails.
The scale of the Kidbrooke Village development cannot be overstated. After more than five years the regeneration is not slowing down at all, and will continue for a further 15-20 years until Kidbrooke truly stands on its own as a premiere location in this vibrant and beautiful part of London.
Economy & Employment - Jobs and the general economy will give you the confidence needed.
Kidbrooke is very well located for city workers and young professionals employed in most of London’s major employment hubs such as Canary Wharf, Bank and London Bridge.
At less than half an hour on the train from many of these key commercial zones, Kidbrooke is going to be very popular with this professional demographic.
The increase in Kidbrooke’s desirability thanks to the major regeneration plans is having a direct effect on the socio-economic demographic of the area’s residents. This phenomenon is known as ‘urban gentrification’ and is a major factor on appreciation in property values.
The Kidbrooke masterplan itself has created over 2,500 construction jobs including 56 apprenticeships. The Construction Skills Centre created as part of the plan is open and providing valuable skills and training to an enthusiastic new generation of construction professionals.
Transport - The best transport links are always the most desirable characteristics.
By Air: The closest international airport is London City Airport, around 40 minutes from the development by public transport. The airport services around 4.3 million passengers a year.
By Rail: The Square is directly served by Kidbrooke’s mainline station, a few minute walk from the development. Major employment hubs are in an easily commutable distance, such as Canary Wharf (32 mins), London Bridge (21 mins) and Moorgate (33 mins.)
By Road: The Square is located right by the A2213, connecting to the A2, leading north into London and south into Kent.
By Bus: Buses are routed to stop at the outside of The Square and provide transport throughout the village and to surrounding areas including Lewisham, Blackheath, Woolwich and Greenwich. The closest stop is only a few minutes' away.
Education - Families are drawn to the areas with the best education facilities.
Kidbrooke Station has easy access to central London, where you can find some of the world’s top universities such as King’s College, University College London and many more.
To increase opportunities in construction for local residents, Berkeley has created a Construction Skills Centre and has provided several apprenticeships throughout the development of Kidbrooke Village.
Between 2009 and 2012 The Royal Borough of Greenwich saw a 20 percent increase in the number of students achieving 5 good GCSEs including English and Maths. This is the biggest improvement of any London borough.
Kidbrooke is home to a handful of schools, including primary schools, independent schools and secondary schools.
Further Education: London South East Colleages has a Greenwich campus around 40 minutes by public transport from Kidbrooke Village.
The Kidbrooke Constructions Skills Centre is located in the heart of Kidbrooke Village.
Higher Education: The University of Greenwich is located only 29 minutes on public transport or 14 minutes by car from Kidbrook Village. The university is home to almost 21,300 students.
Shopping & Leisure - Readily available leisure facilities are so important to the fundamentals.
Shopping: Throughout the borough of Greenwich, countless shopping and leisure opportunities are present for residents and visitors to enjoy. Greenwich Market has been in operation since 1700 and offers an exciting array of handmade food and crafts. Bars, cafes and restaurants are numerous throughout Greenwich, as well as most popular high street shops and many boutique stores.
As well as plentiful outdoor space, Greenwich hosts many sports clubs and gyms, so active lifestyles are catered for.
The regeneration plans within Kidbrooke will bring a new Village Centre to the area including local shops, community and healthcare facilities and more landscaped outdoor space.

Chairman's Thoughts - Click to expand
"A great development that's seen plenty of growth"
We're very happy to be back in Kidbrooke for a simple reason: We've sold here before, so we know first hand what's achievable.
According to local agents, units here rent out very quickly, and tenants often stay in the properties for years, giving investors peace of mind without having to worry about void periods.
Naturally, this speaks to the award-winning and world renowned Berkeley Group as a developer, too. With an aim to complete each development to the highest standard, they really do attract the urban professionals many investors dream of.
Kidbrooke Village is located within a five minute walk to Kidbrooke station, and is an easily commutable distance to many of London's major employment hubs such as Canary Wharf (32 mins), London Bridge(21 min) and Moorgate (32) in the City. The 136 acre development is also close to several universities.
London City Airport is also around 40 minutes away, connecting residents not only to one of the most buzzing cities in the world, but the world truly is their oyster thanks to the great international connections virtually on their doorstep.
Thanks to our special relationship with BerkeleyGroup, stretching back the better part of a decade.We started selling units in Kidbrooke in 2010, and have seen how this development has benefitted our investors' portfolios. One great example is GeorgeLevy, who has seen amazing capital growth. Make sure to read the interview with him in this DDInvest.
