I have already posted a question just on the location of the houses, but did not get many replies :( so really hoping for some opinions here! :) :)
I am looking to buy a 3-bed house in St-Margarets/Twickenham area with a very limited budget (for that area) of around 500K. There isn't anything in that price brackets in St-Margarets/Twickenham, so I have started looking at the borders of these area.
There are 2 houses on the market now, please please give me your opinions which one you would prefer and why (or none of these really :) ) - I am going to throw myself into a really huge mortgage commitment, so this isn't an easy decision for me.
1 - First house on sale for 550K but is on the market for quite a while now, so hopefully the seller will agree for a lesser amount.

2 - Second house just got on the market at 470 but there is an open day coming, so it may go for more than that.

I am not from this part of London so would really really appreciate any comments about the above locations and generally about good areas around where I can still buy for around 500K. Transport is very important consideration (commuting to City of London), and schools will be important in the future (not kids yet though, and we are CoE so would consider CoE schools in the future).
Thanks a lot in advance!
