There was a heavy police presence at the semi-detached property on Hammond Road on Friday as people laid flowers on the pavement.
Neighbours said that a Pakistani family with six ‘very young’ children moved into the house in April.
One mother, who wished not to be named, said she was ‘traumatised’ by the news, adding that her children were ‘terrified’.
She said: ‘It’s just a shock. My 16-year-old daughter was very upset thinking about that little girl.’
Several neighbours said that they were in a state of shock after hearing the news. In a statement on Thursday evening, Surrey Police said officers were called to the address at around 2.50am that morning following ‘concern’ for the girl’s safety.
The investigation is being led by Surrey Police and Sussex Police’s major crime team.
The child’s loved ones have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers, Surrey Police said.

Neighbour Amjad Ali, 47, told MailOnline he ‘couldn’t believe’ that ‘something like this happened outside my house.’
He added that the family moved in about five months ago and that everyone in the area is ‘shocked’ by the girl’s death.
Mr Ali said: ‘The first I knew of anything was around 3.30 this morning.
‘My son looked out the window as I had taken my wife on holiday and were still up and he said the road was full of police.
‘Then an officer knocked on the door and asked if we knew anything about the family, but we don’t really know them.
‘They are a Pakistani family that moved in about five months ago. I don’t know where from, but the husband works as a taxi driver, and they have three or four kids.
‘I only know them to say “Hello” and that’s about it. The kids sometimes play together but we don’t really mix that much.
‘This is a very nice area and everyone is shocked. I didn’t know a little girl was involved until I saw it on the news.’
