Buying Agent Area Focus: The Surrey Hills

As Surrey Property Finding Agents we support our clients to find their perfect home in the vilages of the Surrey Hills and the surrounding area including the pituresque towns of Guildford, Godalming, Farnham and Haslemere.

The Surrey Hills is a National Landscape - formerly Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) - covering parts of the North Downs and Greensand Ridge in Surrey, England. It is a beautiful part of the countryside and includes several picturesque villages such as Shere, Chiddingfold, Shamley Green and Brockham to name a few. Each village comes with its own unique features and the wider Surrey Hills area offers a variety of attractions.

Accessibility into London is one of the biggest draws to Surrey when looking to buy a home. Many families wishing to move out of London but still needing to commute to London during the week, look to the Surrey Hills for their move in order to make the most of the countryside and village lifestyle, but take advantage of the excellent train connections back to central London.

Fast trains from Woking reach London Waterloo within 26 minutes door to door; Guildford trains arrive into London Waterloo within 40 minutes; Both Farnham and Haslemere offer trains to Waterloo in around 50-55 mins; and Dorking, to the east, has direct trains to both London Waterloo and London Victoria which take around an hour.

Guildford, with its pretty Market Town High Street, selection of restaurants, cafes and bars and excellent connections back to London, comes top of the list for many buyers in Surrey. In fact, Guildford is often voted as one of the best places to live, and it is easy to see why! The riverside town offers a wealth of attractions, culture, excellent commuter links into London, and some of the top schools in the country - it is hardly surprising that a lot of our clients come to us with Guildford as the focus of their property search.

The villages surrounding Guildford are appealing to many buyers as they offer the best of both worlds - green space and countryside on the doorstep with superb commuter links back to London via Guildford. Surrey HomeSearch can advise on the areas that will best suit your needs and can seek out a hidden gem that could be your new home!
