Times to Bank, King’s Cross, Canary Wharf and Heathrow marked as verified are the fastest TfL Journey Planner result for leaving the named station at 09:00 on Wednesday 21 October 2026, including walking between platforms; other times are the developer’s published figures.

Schools nearby

• Burlington Infant and Nursery School (infant and nursery school, ages 2 to 7), KT3 4LT, about 0.6 km: Ofsted Outstanding, inspection of 11 October 2023.^{14, 15}Verified (official source)
• Rutlish School (boys’ secondary, ages 11 to 19), SW20 9AD, about 2.3 km: all five areas judged Outstanding at the inspection of 24 September 2024 (Ofsted no longer gives a single overall grade).^{15, 16}Verified (official source)

Distance is a straight line between postcodes, not a walking route. Each school sets its own admission rules, and living nearby does not secure a place. Outstanding is Ofsted’s highest grade; the result and date are those on the school’s Ofsted page on the date checked.

The area and its plans

• Merton Council adopted its new Local Plan on 20 November 2024. For the Tesco site on Burlington Road (KT3 4NE), the plan records that the Planning Inspectorate granted planning permission on appeal on 29 June 2021, and the council’s committee report on that site describes 456 homes (status: permitted).^{17, 18, 19}Verified (official source)

Plans can change or be delayed. We do not draw conclusions about future prices or rents from them.

A figure with a source number comes from the developer’s published documents on the date shown. It applies to the development or to the one home named, and can be different for the home you choose. For a specific home we obtain the lease length, service charge budget, ground rent, council tax band and parking terms from the developer in writing and send them to you before any viewing. Our guide to leasehold and service charges explains how to read these figures.

Rent evidence

• Merton, August 2026, average monthly private rent: 1 bedroom £1,639, 2 bedrooms £2,024, 3 bedrooms £2,407.²⁰Verified (official source)

Average private rents across the whole borough, published by the Office for National Statistics. They are not a rent estimate or valuation for homes here, and we do not publish yield figures.

Developer offers

• On selected homes Barratt London advertises ‘Your Choice. Your Move.’: you choose one offer (a contribution to your deposit, to normal Stamp Duty, to your mortgage payments, or the first two years’ service charge), a furniture pack, and reserve for £99. Its terms exclude the Stamp Duty surcharges, require exchange of contracts within 42 days of reservation, and the deposit contribution is not available on buy-to-let purchases. On this development the deposit contribution applies only to homes bought with a mortgage of up to £750,000.^{1, 21}Developer statement

Offers change and apply to selected homes only. Before you reserve, we confirm in writing whether an offer applies to you.

Buying from abroad: general information

• Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is paid when you buy a home in England. If any buyer is not UK resident for SDLT purposes, a non-resident surcharge is added on top of the normal rates. For an individual the test is time spent in the UK: you are treated as non-resident if you were not in the UK for at least 183 days in the 12 months before the purchase.²²Verified (official source)
• An individual who paid the non-resident surcharge can claim it back by amending the SDLT return if they spend at least 183 days in the UK in a continuous 365-day period within the window that starts 364 days before and ends 365 days after the purchase. The claim must be made within two years of the purchase.²²Verified (official source)
• If, after the purchase, you will own more than one residential property, higher rates for additional properties usually apply as well. A developer offer that pays ‘Stamp Duty’ covers only what its terms say; check whether it excludes these surcharges.²³Verified (official source)

General information from GOV.UK, not tax advice. Your solicitor or tax adviser confirms what applies to you.

Before you reserve

• Purchase cost breakdown: deposit, Stamp Duty, legal fees and payment timing.
• Stamp Duty calculator: your tax as an overseas or UK buyer.
• Reservation vs exchange: what each step commits you to.
• Questions to ask before reserving: the checklist we use.
• Rental yield calculator: test your own rent and cost assumptions.

Who it may suit

• Matches a buyer looking for a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment in South West London with a budget from about £375,000, either completed now or in the latest release.¹Developer statement

A factual match based on the prices, home types and timing above. It is not a recommendation.

Ask about current availability

Prices and availability change. We confirm both with the developer and, with your agreement, register you with them in writing before any visit. If you buy following our introduction, the developer or a company selling on its behalf may pay us a referral fee or commission.
