Wimbledon is a much sought-after location for those seeking the combination of fast access to London and the country feel of Wimbledon Common. Situated in the London Borough of Merton, Wimbledon is covered by postcodes SW19 and SW20. Houses to rent in Wimbledon vary considerably in style, period and price. Wimbledon village has some of the most exclusive properties outside of central London, and during the Wimbledon Championships, can command eye-wateringly high rents. Even more modest properties benefit from their proximity to the All England Club in Church Road and purchasers looking for buy-to-let opportunities can do very well.
Beyond the rarefied atmosphere of Wimbledon village, there is a good supply of flats to rent in Wimbledon close to public transport and good shops. One-bedroom flats, within walking distance of the railway and underground station, will have a rental of £800 per month. Closer to Wimbledon village, one-bedroom flats cost in the region of £920 per month. Detached Victorian houses offering five bedrooms command rentals in excess of £3,000 per month. However, a five-bedroom detached house in the heart of Wimbledon village can command a monthly rental of £12,000.
Amenities for properties in Wimbledon
Wimbledon village has a wide-range of amenities including quality restaurants, street cafes, pubs, bars, well-attended churches, and plenty of expensive boutiques. Down Wimbledon Hill to the town centre, there is the superb indoor shopping mall, aptly named Centre Court; plus two or three supermarkets, Wimbledon Theatre and Wimbledon Odeon.
There is a good mix of schools in Wimbledon including state and Church of England primaries such as the very popular, Bishop Gilpin First School. Ursuline High is a Roman Catholic comprehensive for girls and Wimbledon College is a voluntary-aided Roman Catholic school for boys. At the top end of the independent schools there is Wimbledon High School for Girls and King's College School for boys.
