Elmbridge: Cobham, Weybridge and Esher

Often referred to as the Golden Triangle, the towns and villages around Cobham, Weybridge and Esher in north Surrey rank among the county鈥檚 most coveted postcodes. Elmbridge borders the southwest London boroughs of Richmond and Kingston-on-Thames, offering a slice of countryside life combined with the feel and amenities of upscale suburbs of the capital. Fast train links to London are a major benefit, with journey times from Esher and Weybridge to the capital from as little as around 30 minutes, providing some of the best connectivity in the region.

Elmbridge offers a more urban feel than some other Surrey areas, while it is also home to several of the UK鈥檚 most prestigious private estates for those seeking enhanced privacy and security. St George鈥檚 Hill and the nearby Wentworth Estate were both developed by W. G. Tarrant and continue to be known for their golf courses, exclusivity and large homes.

鈥淐obham has a particularly active high street, with family homes typically ranging from around £2m to £6m, while Esher has a huge mix of styles and sizes across price points,鈥� says Matthew. 鈥淢ore recently, in response to VAT being applied to private school fees, we鈥檝e seen buyers moving within the area to access outstanding state schools, for example, Heathside School in Weybridge or Hinchley Wood School near Esher.鈥�
