We are currently renting in Beckenham, and really want to buy our first property sometime within the next 6 months or so, within the budget of 300K. Ideally we'd like a terraced house with a garden, but realistically, with our kind of budget, we most likely get a maisolette. I currently working between Blackfriars & London Bridge, while wife looking after our DS (8 yo). We are hoping to find something within 1 hr 15 mins travel time, family friendly, as well as good primary and secondary catchment area. Since I doubt my DS will pas the 11+, Grammar will not be our priority.
Here is a list of areas we've looked into, however, we could still really use your thoughts and suggestions!
- West Wickham
- Elmers End
- Carshalton
- Purley
- Wallington
After all, thank you all again!
