Zone 4 homes with fast transport links: new homes in leafy Mitcham come with garages on a former factory complex - just 25 minutes from Waterloo
The south-west London suburb may have a country village atmosphere but Mitcham is only a 25-minute train ride to Waterloo and Victoria.

The arrival of the Northern line in 1926 sparked a development boom but Merton, Morden and Mitcham in south-west London are still punctuated by greenery and commons, and the River Wandle runs through them.
In Mitcham, once renowned for its lavender fields and watercress beds, a former factory complex has made way for Millfields, above and below, a scheme of apartments and townhouses with integral garages on the Wandle’s banks.
Good value: Houses cost from £415,000
