It lies 5.0 km east of Adelaide, SA (from Adelaide, SA: bearing 95°T), and is situated 7.7 km south-east of Prospect.

The air carries the faint, sweet scent of flowering shrubs, a subtle perfume woven into the everyday. Streets wind with a casual grace, following the contours of the terrain rather than imposing a rigid grid, and the quality of the light, especially as afternoon softens towards evening, washes the rooftops in hues of ochre and rose.
Historically, Leabrook's character has been shaped by its proximity to the city and its fertile soils, which have long supported market gardens and orchards. Though the agricultural footprint has receded, a sense of enduring connection to the land persists, visible in the well-tended properties and the occasional glimpse of citrus groves or vines. The local economy, while diversified, still draws on the area's inherent appeal, with boutique businesses and services catering to a resident population that values a tranquil, yet connected, lifestyle. Leabrook's quiet charm lies in this harmonious blend of residential comfort and a subtle, lingering echo of its agricultural past, a place where the pace of life feels measured and content.
