Quick answer

What is living in
Southfields
like?

Southfields sits between Putney Heath, Earlsfield and Wimbledon Park, in the south of Wandsworth. At its heart is the Grid, a network of Edwardian terraces built between the 1890s and 1906, with shops on Replingham Road and Wimbledon Park Road by the station. West of the railway, roads such as Augustus Road and Sutherland Grove have larger interwar houses. The station is on the District line, and each summer it is the official station for the Wimbledon Championships. Walk the routes around each home at different times of day.

Wimbledon Park on the doorstep

A Grade II* registered park with a lake made for Earl Spencer in the 1760s, plus tennis, an athletics track and watersports.

The Grid

Some 1,766 houses, maisonettes and shops, built between the 1890s and 1906, give the streets east of the station a consistent Edwardian character.

A village feel by the station

Cafés, a pub and independent food shops gather on Replingham Road and Wimbledon Park Road, a few steps from the District line.

Landmarks & what it’s famous for

A neighbourhood shaped by the Grid and the park

Three places to orient yourself: the Edwardian streets of the Grid, the park at their southern edge and the station at the centre of it all.

Understanding
Southfields
’s sales market

Ranges come from completed sales recorded by HM Land Registry, matched to EPC floor areas where possible. Compare individual homes on their exact size, tenure, lease length, service charges and setting.

Southfields is mostly houses and conversions: Edwardian terraces and maisonettes on the Grid, larger interwar houses west of the railway and some purpose-built flats. Compare individual properties on their exact size, tenure, lease length and street setting.

The right comparison matters.

Compare flats, maisonettes and houses on a like-for-like basis: size, tenure, lease length and street setting all deserve attention. A broad SW18 or SW19 average is not a valuation of any particular home.

Asking is not achieved

An asking price is the seller’s advertised figure. An achieved price is the completed sale amount. Asking £/sq ft and achieved £/sq ft must use clearly identified, comparable datasets and floor-area methods.

Prices across Wandsworth fell 5.3% in the year to August 2026: flats by 6.5% and terraced houses by 3.1% (UK House Price Index). For an individual home, compare it with recent sales of a similar size, type and street.

Choose for the life you’ll lead.

When renting in Southfields, think about whether you want to be on the Grid near the station, closer to Wimbledon Park or west of the railway, and how you will get to work. The condition of the property, outdoor space and layout all matter.

Always review the full monthly costs, including any additional fees, and carefully examine the tenancy terms. If you are letting rooms, check licensing first: larger HMOs need a mandatory licence, and many councils license smaller ones too.

Yield is indicative, not investment advice: median recorded rent against the median achieved price for a similar-sized flat. It is not an achieved yield.
