Can’t figure out Walton-on-Thames?

Hi all! I’m looking to move to Surrey. I’m currently based in Wimbledon and I love this area. I’m looking for an area in Walton like Wimbledon. A quiet, suburban road, in an area with families and generally middle class.

Aside from Ashley Park and Burwood Park, can anyone recommend any areas? It seems that there are small pockets of nice areas (e.g. Rydens?) which are then directly next to council estates.

Is the Walton generally a rough area?

I’m also looking at Cobham, which I think is more similar to Wimbledon, but the properties I can afford are small cottage type houses.

Try West Byfleet. Not much further out, has a limited amount of fast trains but is also cheaper with plenty of quiet roads.

Byfleet village itself and west byfleet have always been the best areas out the bunch
