I note that the houses assessed "had to be within half a mile of the
station" - factor in a mere 10 minutes walk and the overall picture
could be quite different.


When I lived near a commuter station, just outside the M25, my rule of
thumb for house prices (of otherwise similar properties) was 2% per
minute's walk from the station. [Actually it was £1,000, but the average
prices for say a three bed semi were about £50k; probably about £300k
now].
