Family-friendly

West Barnes is a residential area on the western edge of Merton, with a mix of interwar semis and some modern development. The local shopping is adequate and the area has a suburban character. The railway at Motspur Park gives access to London Waterloo. It is popular with families who want more space and are not dependent on the Tube.
