Earlsfield has changed a bit in the last few years, with more boutique shops and cafes. Great for children and lots of places to take your pets for a walk in green spaces.
Transport
We have regular trains that travel directly to Waterloo in 12 minutes (3 stops) which means a quick connection to the underground! We are also very close to Southfields where the District line stops!
Community
Parking availability is limited although available. Although we have lovely bars in the area it is still very family oriented as well. I very rarely come across any anti-social behavior! As long as I have lived in the area, as long as you are just off Garratt Lane, it is very peaceful in terms of traffic noise and my street specifically are younger families or professionals. Bin collections happen for us every Thursday and we haven't been let down!

I have lived in the area for 7 years and find it to have everything I would look for in an area. Firstly, we have direct and regular trains to Waterloo which is only 3 stops (12 minutes) aways where you are able to connect to the underground! I live within a 10 minute walk of two large parks, including Wimbledon Park which is lovely (it has a lake and many tennis courts should you be interested). The cafes, bars (which include family friendly outside gardens) and restaurants are great with new ones regularly popping up. There are plenty of gyms to choose from, with two Nuffield gyms, a cross fit gym and many other independent gyms (both low cost and slightly more exclusive) within the area. The parks also have bootcamps which is a great way to meet new people. There is a good sized shopping centre, Southside Mall (with brands such as H&M, Next, TK Maxx, River Island, New Look etc), which is right next to the Ram Quarter with lovely pop up food stalls on the weekend (and more cafes and restaurants). Earlsfield has a mix of smaller grocery stores and larger ones such as Sainsbury's, Waitrose and Lidl.
I would highly recommend this area for families owing to the sense of community and I feel very safe here.
I would highly recommend this area for families owing to the sense of community and I feel very safe here. The area is definitely on the up with new houses being built and old 1960's buildings that had fallen into disrepair have now gone. Great broadband coverage. The roads could do with some upgrades but this is being seen to.
Transport
Earlsfield has good links to London and Wimbledon. It's quite a long walk to a tube station from my location about 35 minutes, but a bus will get you there quickly. Wandsworth Common is not served very well for buses, however a walk down the hill will get you to Garratt Lane where there are plenty of bus routes to Putney and Tooting. Traffic can be an issue on Trinity road leading down to Tooting Bec, so is best avoided at busy times. Other pinch points are Garratt Lane at Earlsfield going towards Wandsworth town centre, this gets very busy at school run times.
Community
I love living on my street, it's quiet, we have a huge communal green that is used regularly by residents and there is a strong sense of community on our road. Free parking on the road outside our property. Traffic noise is minimal
Amenities
We have a fantastic range of independent cafes, restaurants and pubs in the area surrounding Earlsfield. Added to this great schools a library and train links to central London and Wimbledon make it an ideal place to live. Local community groups thrive in the area owing to the village feel of this small area of SW18. The open spaces of Wandsworth Common are only a short walk away to enjoy the fresh air.
Living in Wandsworth
The high street is amazing, there are a variety of shops, cafes and restaurants. However the block where I live, the entrance is very dirty, lifts smell of urine. Incidents of arson, luckily picked up very quickly. Just waiting to move out ASAP
There is a great community here

It’s usually 50/50 and overall it’s a ok area to live in eat in and going out in the night.
