Laid over four floors, this home offers a calm and convenient base away from the hustle and bustle of London's lively centre. Just a ten-minute stroll from the famous tennis grounds, with the sprawling Wimbledon and Putney Commons on your doorstep, it's ideal for those wanting wide open spaces. While we appreciate the modern chef's kitchen and ample sunlight running throughout the house, the real standout is the home's lovely private terrace. Complete with an outdoor sofa, it's the perfect spot for evening cocktails.

Local guide
About Wimbledon
It might well be most people's primary association with the area, but the truth is there's so much more to Wimbledon than tennis. With the wilds of the Common, plus verdant Richmond and Wimbledon Parks close by, and the village at the top of the hill, visitors would be forgiven for thinking they'd left London altogether. Central London is actually only 30 minutes away by tube so Wimbledon really does represent the best of both worlds. With its parks, leafy streets, period houses, excellent pubs and boutique shopping, it's little wonder that Richmond is so popular with affluent families.
