A recent survey revealed that of the top ten most popular Underground stations for property hunters, Eastcote came second in the list, with all three Ruislip stations featuring in the top ten too!
The research, featured in the Telegraph this month, highlighted the increasing popularity of outer London among home buyers, with all the top ten property hotspots positioned in zone five or beyond, where property is much more affordable than inner London.
By contrast, the ten least in-demand stations were all in zone one, the most central of London’s transport districts. Watford, in zone seven, had a demand rating of 78pc, calculated by eMoov by monitoring the number of properties listed against the number that have sold in a certain period.
Bond Street came out as the least popular, with demand at just 13pc.
The top nine most in-demand stations were all in north-west London. East London also proved popular, with most of the “biggest climbers” - the stations with the largest increases in demand - situated on the right of the tube map.
The Central Line was the most popular line, with demand for property along it at 48pc, but the Jubilee Line saw the largest increase in demand in the past six months, up 18pc.
