This. Also, don't just rely on Google Maps estimates - ask on here.
For instance, I can get a train to London Bridge in 15-20 minutes, then hop a Northern Line train to work in 5 minutes. In theory.
In practice, the Northern Line is so manic at that time of morning that even if I could get on, I wouldn't want to. So it's a 25 minute bus ride or a walk of the same length.
Sparky-
This is very sound advice.
Defo ask on here lots, but ignore @amey (general rule of thumb).

Whether you're planning on cycling to work, etc or public transport will make quite a difference.
If you're cycling then you don't really want to have to pass through central London every day (although plenty do) but there aren't any real restrictions. If you're thinking of public transport then you need to start considering nearest tube, what line your office is on, what the buses are like, etc which can make a big difference.
