A neighbourhood for everybody
Ledbury Way forms part of the regeneration of the former Ledbury Estate, comprising 340 new homes across two phases. A wide range of home types will cater to different lifestyles and needs, from a 14-storey apartment block anchoring a prominent corner of the site to family maisonettes with their own private front doors and deck-access entrances, offering an established, street-facing feel.
At the centre of the development, the striking octagonal 25-storey tower stands as a modern landmark, offering dual-aspect apartments and stunning panoramic views across the city. Importantly, the design retains many of the much-loved qualities of the old estate, such as spacious layouts and a strong sense of community.
A long-term vision
Southwark Council has partnered with Higgins Homes to create Ledbury Way, which is set to offer all the hallmarks of stylish, contemporary design that multi award-winning Higgins Homes is renowned for. But more than just a new collection of homes, the development is part of a long-term vision to reshape and revitalise the wider neighbourhood.
