Seeing a fair bit more value in places like Forest Hill and Stoke Newington which respectively are further South and North. They seem like nice areas from what we have seen and there are less big newbuilds which we aren't keen on.
Thoughts on these areas? Looking to buy a 2-bed and primarily looking around London Fields / Victoria Park.
Just copped a two bed near the Hemmingway for £400k. Was pretty much the cheapest i could find.

My girlfriend lives in stoke newington and it's a brilliant place. Church St feels like a little oasis away from London, and then you've got Clissold park, some really good pubs and good, diverse, transport links. Would thoroughly recommend having a look around Stoke Newington.

Echo this - I bought there 2-3 years ago now and it's great. Great pubs, restaurants and definitely a little community feel about it. Some people say 'ahh, no tube - fuck that' - but in essence you're a 3minute train from Seven Sisters or a bus up there or down to Dalston which is rapid. Also shit loads of buses. It seems to be pricey to buy compared to Clapton ways but yeh..

Ideally we'd like a two bed with a budget of 1600pcm commute of sub 40 mins. Any suggestions? I'm starting a new role within my company and moving from Bath to London, I'll be working in Kings Cross and my better half works for Selfridges.
Up towards Walthamstow you should easily get a really decent 2 bed for that, maybe even 3-bed at a push. Victoria line to Kings X is 20 mins, another 10 to Oxford Circus. Got two different overground lines and tonnes of decent buses to get you pretty much anywhere else in London. Plenty going on round here as well, good pubs and breweries, great cafes and restaurants, parks and cultural stuff, the village high street is nice.
yes.

Congrats on the purchase! Nice little community pub feel to that place, popped in the other week after a viewing.
I think we will be able to justify borrowing a bit more for the right place, e.g some 3 beds are coming up in our search criteria in 'cheaper' areas but this seems excessive. Would rather a good 2 bed.
It's weird in London that 1 / 2 streets away can seemingly mean a huge price difference.

Forest Hill is pretty dead if you're comparing to those areas around Hackney, you'd be bored.
If you're interested in south east, would recommend looking at Deptford or around Peckham (specifically: south west of Peckham station, towards Dulwich).
DM me if you have qus, bought a flat in Peckham last year.
