Hello
Apologies for the long post, in need of a fresh pair of eyes desperately!
My partner and I are first time buyers, currently based in east Berkshire but looking to move nearer to London/be on a fast commuter line to Waterloo (45 mins or less).
We’re hoping to get a 2 bed house. We initially were okay with an apartment, but lockdown has reiterated how much we value some outdoor space.
Partner works in West London, I’m currently working down in Fleet, but hoping to find a new job in London (better prospects/salary in my industry), and we want to be closer to friends.
We’re going out of our minds trying to pin down an area to buy in, that’s within our budget of up to £375K. So far we’ve considered: Woking, Byfleet, Walton, Hersham.
Other areas we’ve highlighted on the map, Leatherhead, Banstead, Epsom.
Does anyone have any advice on the above places? Any positives about any of the areas, advice on where’s pleasant, places to avoid etc.
Or any other area recommendations?!?!
Ps. We’re in our late twenties.
Any input at all would be massively appreciated. Thank you.
