Moving slightly out of London, suggestions pls

[GingerBrummie]

Hi all,
Hope everyones good. Me & DH have always planned to move out of London once we started a family & now with WFH situation we’ve decided to start looking. Both our firms have said they will be encouraging flexible working once we return to the office. I was hoping for some suggestions pls, requirements are: 1hr commute to Central London, somewhere with a busy town centre, coffee shops etc, no villages pls. Specifically looking at Southwest area (not Essex/ Bromley way, nor north of London). Budget is £600k for a 2-3 bedroom house with garden. Sadly Surrey is too expensive but anyone know nearby cheaper places?
Thank you :)

Hayward’s Heath

Tonbridge

Fleet

Plenty of nice towns in Surrey/Hampshire that should be in budget. Fleet, Farnham, Basingstoke is better than it's reputation & has nice areas.

Haslemere?

Twickenham/Teddington/Isleworth

Chesham may be? On the tube - Met Line www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/80233540#/

Windsor
Staines Upon Thames
Kingston

Sutton?? Slightly depends on whether you think it's in London or not: www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/97852805#/
