I have spent the last few years trying to work out where to live when we move out of London, but am no further along, despite spending many weekends down there. I would like a 4 bed house, (detached preferably) in a nice area by a park, and in the catchment area of a decent (non-religious) senior school for my DD9(yrs). I would like the house to have a nice level garden, and for the house to be peaceful. I don't need to be near the beach, and I would happily live in a bungalow if it was big enough. We would need to be near to a station so DH can get to London 3 times a week, and I would like to be close to a nice cafe too (if possible). I would love to be somewhere where DD can ride her bike safely. Places previously considered have been Rye (too expensive) Fairlight (also a bit dear but love being on the clifftops) Old Town (houses too old - low ceilings sloping floors etc, no gardens) but I don't know enough about the other parts of Hastings to judge. I am also an old mum, so would like to be in an area where I won't stand out like a sore thumb in the playground. Can you help? I would be really grateful. Links always welcome. Budget could go up to around £450k but would prefer to spend £360K. Love the look of these houses but they are too dear and I have no idea what the areas are like:
Brittany Helen Thanks in advance!
