We (like everyone else it seems) wants to move somewhere bigger (we are in a two bed flat next to spitalfields farm) but are struggling to find somewhere we actually want to be that has 1) decent primaries 2) decent green space (ie the sort you can go for a run in or at least spend an entire morning with a child 3) enough room for us (we ideally want 3 beds plus space for shed in the garden so I can do printmaking there) or 4 beds. We would love a townhouse or ex council and have no romantic notions about period homes. We got excited by Walthamstow but then dismissed it as not espec green and more hectic than where we are now. but are considering Forest Hill (though I cant see a big park walking distance away). Has anyone got any ideas?? Im also considering Finsbury Park, Wanstead Flats (Ive never been!) maybe somewhere like Southwark Park (for the river). In an ideal world we would move to Bow/Soth Hackney but the prices are crazy. It would also been great to have some decent local shops - even just a baker and deli. Sorry for the mamouth post.
