We have been looking to buy a place on the outskirts of London in some of the more affordable places in Kent as we are growing out of our 2 bed flat in north London. We have two girls coming to school age. I am not a London person, I don't enjoy living in London but am here for my husband's work. We have been looking for a few weeks now and have found a few places we both like but husband keeps wanting to move further in to his work. He has now got his sights on Peckham!
With a budget of £250.000 I just don't think we will get anywhere very nice at all. I am really not keen on moving this far into London and Peckham doesn't seem like the safest haven.
So please correct me if I am wrong. He is getting fed up now and doesn't want to move any further out (even though there are places within our budget a 30 min train journey away)
This weekend I have agreed to go and view a couple of flats in Peckham but I am not happy about it at all.
Can anyone please correct my misinterpretations of Peckham to help me change my mind?
