This part of SW19 is characterised by period and detached houses, independent boutiques along the High Street, and the open expanse of Wimbledon Common at the top of the hill.

Beyond tennis fortnight, SW19 4TT enjoys quiet, tree-lined residential streets, strong local schools, and a range of independent restaurants and cafés that line the Village high street, making it one of Merton's most sought-after addresses.
