Wimbledon

London Borough of MertonSW19

Wimbledon is where London meets the countryside. One thousand acres of Common on your doorstep, an actual village with an actual village green, and the world's most famous tennis tournament as a neighbour. It's prosperous, leafy, and thoroughly suburban—yet Zone 3 District line puts you in the West End in under 30 minutes. For families who want space, schools, and a garden, Wimbledon delivers it all.
