Why Move to Sutton?
Sutton has formed part of Greater London since 1965.
It is an area which boasts many positives, offering prime commuter territory, great schools and some wonderful residential neighbourhoods to choose from.
An ancient parish Sutton is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as having two churches and about 30 houses compared to a population of 42,000 now.
Its location on the London to Brighton turnpike from 1755 led to the opening of coaching inns, thereby spurring its growth as a village.
Today, Sutton railway station is the borough’s largest, with frequent services to central London and other destinations, including Horsham. Plus, the town is very well connected for the M25 and A3.
Having the highest employment rate of all London boroughs, many residents work closer to home rather than in central London.
Sutton is a hub for filming, and it is also home to the Royal Marsden Hospital and the Institute of Cancer Research, so there is no shortage of employment opportunities.
Even though you are close to urban London you don’t have to compromise when it comes to green picturesque areas.
Manor Park and Sutton Green are ideal for walking or cycling and the town also has two nature reserves: Anton Cresent Wetland and the Devonshire Avenue Nature Area.
Banstead Downs extends for around a mile south towards neighbouring Banstead. A large Site of Special Scientific Interest, which covers 430 acres with Banstead Golf Course sitting on its northern slopes.
A place which is embracing the future, Sutton Town Centre is also being redeveloped with its local masterplan outlining the provision of 5,000 homes, enhanced cultural and dining provision and an improved employment location.
As if all this was not enough, Sutton is the third safest borough in London with crime levels lower than they have been for a decade, all good news for those who are searching for a property here.
Sutton Schools & Education
Sutton is represented by Sutton Council which holds the responsibility for delivering a number of services in the Borough including education.
The town is home to a significant number of the borough’s schools, and the vast majority of them are graded as “good” by Ofsted.
Glenthorne High School, Robin Hood Infants’ School, Harris Academy Morden, and Cheam Park Farm Primary Academy have all received the highest honour of “outstanding”.
Two independents serve the town, Sutton High School GDST for children aged between 3-18 years and Homefield Preparatory School for 3-14 years.
The main centre of Sutton College, originally named Sutton College of Liberal Arts, is based in Sutton. The college offers over 1000 part-time courses at its borough-wide centres.

Sutton Property
Having really expanded with the arrival of the railways during the mid-19th century, it is not surprising that much of the town’s earliest architecture is Victorian.
For those searching for a quiet life, Sutton certainly produces the goods. Being one of London’s greenest boroughs plenty of streets sit close to open areas and are pleasantly lined with trees.
As a popular residential area, there is a range of property types in Sutton besides its beautiful Victorian homes, alongside a wealth of purpose-built developments and conversions.
Character homes tend to sit on the older North side of town whilst more modern new builds have sprung up toward the South. Carshalton, Cheam and Belmont typify village life.
Other areas considered to be in demand include Heath Drive, Belmont Heights, and homes within Belmont Village.
With regards to cost. The average price for a detached home is £985,720, semi-detached properties sell for an average of £552,239, terraced homes £457,394 and flats £291,970.
Along with Lambeth, Sutton has the largest growth in its private rental sector, so if you are intending to rent a home Sutton is a good base.
The majority of lets are one- and two-bedroom properties which start from £714pcm. 3-, 4- and 5-bedroom homes are limited but, as a guide to price, these start from £1366pcm upwards to £3174pcm.
