I'm in south leytonstone. its a bit rougher than the posh bit, and whilst we could have afforded to buy in the posh bit, I thought (and still do) its less of a risk to buy south of the tracks - that area will be getting regenerated quite a bit in the forthcoming years, its a 12 minute walk to cross rail at maryland and its pretty likely that it will be generally done up and improved.
if you commute by bike then dont underestimate how useful it is to be in the olympic park in a few minutes, my commute is pretty car-less right until I leave victoria park.
I've noticed prices going up slightly this year - for a good 2 bed with a decent size upstairs bathroom its now 400-425k.
