Location

Hearne Road is situated in the sought after Strand-on-the-Green and is approximately 0.3 miles to Kew Bridge Station and approximately 0.7 miles to Gunnersbury Station, offering the District line.

Strand-on-the-Green is one of Chiswick’s four medieval villages and a particularly picturesque riverside enclave in West London. Designated a conservation area, it is known for its imposing listed buildings lining the River Thames. A prominent local landmark is the Grade II listed Kew Railway Bridge, which spans both the Thames and the Strand, while Oliver’s Island sits just offshore, enhancing the area’s distinctive character.

Originally a fishing village known as Stronde in 1353, Strand on the Green developed into a centre of river trade by the 18th century. The opening of Kew Bridge and the influence of the nearby royal palace at Kew brought prosperity, though commercial freight later declined. By the 20th century, the area had become predominantly residential. Shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs are primarily along The Strand and Thames Road, with independent businesses tucked into neighbouring streets. Local amenities include the post office, dental practice, dry cleaners and well known cafés, alongside nearby Grove Park Deli and Budgens. Along the Thames Path, Dear Coco Street Coffee serves high quality coffee and baked goods.

The area is particularly celebrated for its traditional riverside pubs. The Bull’s Head occupies a prime position on the river’s edge and has been licensed since at least 1722. The City Barge is popular for relaxed dining, while the Bell and Crown and The Steam Packet offer welcoming interiors and seasonal menus. Annie’s provides informal café style dining with outdoor seating.

Chiswick lies approximately eight miles west of Central London and offers a village atmosphere with tree lined streets, period homes and green open spaces. Peaceful yet well connected, it provides convenient access to central London and Heathrow. Chiswick High Road forms the lively heart of the neighbourhood, linking Turnham Green Terrace and Devonshire Road, known for independent shops, restaurants and cafés.
