I would have thought some of the really expensive places in Surrey would be ideal. Leafy and very expensive (no Chavs) and quick routes into London.

£700K will buy you a starter home for your family to grow in and school fees a very reasonable £20K a year.

A staunchly Conservative borough, Surrey Heath returned only two Labour seats in the 2007 by-elections

Guildford. Half an hour to Waterloo, good schools, nice countryside around, pretty cobbled high street.
Sorted.

Bristol / Bath very nice but if you've got young kids you have to consider the accent you could leave them with. It's a bit like the Brummie accent whereby it just makes anyone sound like a village idiot.

Only if you choose to live in 'artcliff' or Knowle, try Clifton or Redland.

People in Bath speak with 'received pronunciation' don't you know, Bath also has very good schools.

It's also the setting for Bonekickers! Boomed!

realityhack, could you be totally freelance and work from home? I do like London but I couldn't live there, raising childen in the countryside has to be the way to go.

as nice as SW London can be

SW LOndon has planes going over it all the time. SE LOndon is far nicer.

From Guildford station.

Add on the commute to get to the station and general related faff of about 20-30 mins if you live in one of the outlying villages.
