Property in Esher and Walton-on-Thames Guildford and Godalming Reigate and Redhill Leatherhead and Dorking Woking East Horsley Oxshott Cranleigh Brookwood PROPERTY IN ESHER AND WALTON-ON-THAMES Both form part of the Borough of Elmbridge, coined “The Beverley Hills of Britain” by some, due to the magnitude of income tax paid by its residents! Good road communications such as the A3/M25, close proximity to London Gatwick and particularly Heathrow, good train services to London and elsewhere, along with some splendid countryside and proximity to the Thames, make Elmbridge an enviable location. There are good state and independent schools locally and within the Borough such as Reeds in Cobham. Along with good shopping, there is also a range of cultural and leisure amenities such as Sandown Racecourse, pubs and restaurants as well as various sports clubs e.g. rowing and sailing clubs along the Thames. Whilst Walton is mentioned in the Domesday Book, Esher grew later on, almost as a suburb of the Royal Palace of Hampton Court during Henry VIII’s time. Notable residents have included George Harrison of the Beatles, Queen Victoria and Dame Julie Andrews of Sound of Music fame. These and other towns and villages in Elmbridge, such as Weybridge, Cobham and Oxshott provide a wealth of historic, older and more contemporary housing to buy or rent, whatever your budget.
