It is as it sounds. What would you do? Where do you live that's nice enough, and above all, cheap, that I haven't thought of?
It needs to be London but obviously won't be central - the ever-creeping Essex/London border is fine but none of the St Albans type stuff. East/South is preferred. I don't need to live in it forever but I do need to live in it for a couple of years. It might be rented out after that so somewhere other people like to live or would like to live in the future would be good. There are no children involved.
Studio if I have to but it would need to be a decent size one. 1 bed fine, 2 bed ideal/an impossible dream. Outside space would be nice.
Ideally I'd like to do a bit of work on it, because I'm not un-handy and it makes the £ go further. But no uninhabitable shells.
A train or tube into central within 1/2 a mile of the flat - 30/40 min into Liverpool St or central proper is fine.
I've been thinking of Croydon. Plaistow. Manor Park. Plumstead. Ilford? Any other suggestions, or thoughts on those bits?
