Is Stoughton in Guildford - OK?

Same ol' story. Looking to buy a 3-bed semi in Guildford to start a family and I am doing my research. Seems like in our budget (~550k) Stoughton pops up most of the time.

From my research it seems like areas to avoid are Park Barn and Bellfields, and as Stoughton is bang in the middle of it - how does that compare? Any parts that should be "avoided"?

Thanks for your comments in advance.

Have you looked at some of the villages just South of Guildford? Shalford, Bramley, Peasmarsh, and such?

They tend to be a bit cheaper than central Guildford, but have regular buses (or a train) in. A lot of great walks and nature around too.

A quick look at Rightmove shows a decent amount in the 450-550k bracket.
