The heart of Tooting
Tooting Broadway is where Tooting High Street, Mitcham Road and Upper Tooting Road meet. Tooting Market and Broadway Market, the shops and the restaurants along the high street keep it busy from early morning to late evening.
Getting around
Tooting Broadway station is on the Northern line, with direct trains to the City and the West End. Buses run in every direction, and Tooting station on Thameslink is a short walk away.
The homes
Victorian and Edwardian terraces fill the side streets, many of them converted into flats, with newer blocks closer to the high street.
For landlords
St George's Hospital is close by, and with the Northern line on the doorstep, demand comes from hospital staff, students and people who work in town. Rooms and flats let quickly when they are priced right and well looked after. Tooting Broadway is in the London Borough of Wandsworth, so check Wandsworth's licensing rules before you let, especially a shared house.
For sellers
Flats near the station sell to first-time buyers and investors. Clear information on the lease, service charges and any recent works helps a sale go through without delays.
