Commute times to work, a good school or even your mum’s house are key considerations for anyone moving home. So if you haven’t yet discovered Travel Time, the search tool available via the lovely people at Zoopla, you could be missing a trick.
Traditional property search tools don’t take travel time into account when providing results. They assume we all travel as the crow flies.
Discover the locations within your preferred commute time, via Travel Time.
Home hunters can now search for properties based on travel time from a selected property to any designated location. They can choose their preferred travel method – such as walking, train, bus, bicycle or car – and the nifty calculator will factor the respective travel time into its calculation.
For example, you can search for properties for sale or to rent within a certain travel time from Turnham Green tube or Chiswick overground station. You can also refine your search based on price range, number of bedrooms, property type and more. Results may be viewed in either a list or map view.
