The bottom line

W7 1LB offers exceptional schools (100% Good/Outstanding) and low crime — strong value for Families and Owner-occupiers who can accept its trade-offs.

The catches: very high noise (65 dB) — check proximity to rail lines; 47 min to waterloo — above average for this zone and 1 Japanese knotweed site within 400m — may affect mortgage applications.
