Top tips for a New Malden Home Buyers Survey

New Malden is an area of relatively affordable family houses. It developed after the railway arrived in 1846 and the High Street still boasts many Victorian terrace and semi-detached houses which were built in the years which followed.

There are also any number of the ubiquitous 1920s and 1930s detached, semi-detached and terrace houses which you find in London suburbs. Houses for sale in New Malden generally vastly outnumber flats for sale. Presburg Road boasts some large detached Victorian houses. .

There are some modern developments devoted to shared ownership such as Radius in Burlington Road.

Properties in New Malden built in close proximity to the Hogsmill River and the Beverley Brook, such as in Chapel Mill Road and Aboyne Drive, have been subject to flood warnings and alerts from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details).	Properties in some areas of New Malden are built in designated smoke control areas. A recent local authority search done for a dwelling in Purbeck Avenue noted that the property was in such a smoke control area. Under the terms of Section 20 of the Clean Air Act 1993, smoke emissions from all buildings are prohibited unless an exemption has been made by the Secretary of State under Section 21 of the Act.	Properties sometimes have issues with ground stability in certain locations in New Malden. In a recent environmental search, taken out for a property in Purbeck Road, the report noted that there was a moderate potential for natural ground instability within 50m of the property. This should not be taken to mean that the property in question actually suffered/suffers from subsidence however as "active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built."

Greater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.

Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.

Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.
