Why move to Weybridge?

Excellent road links, easy access to major airports and regular speedy train services to London Waterloo ensure the town’s continued popularity with commuters.

Architecture and property

The centre of town is home to post-war apartments and Edwardian semis while the many private roads and gated developments are made up of luxurious mansions. Local builder Walter George Tarrant developed the area extensively in the early 20th century and created the exclusive estate of St. George’s Hill, now a firm favourite with international buyers enhanced in recent years by new-build mansions from developers Octagon.

Shopping and amenities

The Heart shopping centre in neighbouring Walton-on-Thames has a more extensive range of high street shops. Further amenities in Weybridge town centre include a post office, library, doctor and dentist surgeries.

Mercedes-Benz World, with its high-octane driving experiences, are both must-visit attractions for motoring and aviation enthusiasts. Thrill-seekers will enjoy a day at Thorpe Park in Chertsey, while Topgolf Surrey’s driving range is a more laid-back option, albeit with a competitive edge. 

Green space

Weybridge boasts many parks, gardens and recreation grounds, including Oatlands Park, Churchfields and Brooklands Community Park. Riverside walks are the order of the day and residents can enjoy strolls or bike rides along both the River Wey and the Thames. Nearby Chertsey Meads has 175 acres of meadow to explore, with a children’s play area and picnic spots.

What does our local Hamptons community think

We just completed on a house we bought through Kathy at Hamptons. She was fantastic the whole way through. There was some tricky paper work on our purchase and she was very supportive and helpful.

Elaine Learmonth November 2023

Excellent service from Maya, Rorhan and Kathy at Hamptons Weybridge. They sold our flat for us and also found us our lovely new house and the process was seamless from start to finish - taking just under 9 weeks to complete on both ends. Highly recommend!!
