Ha, no worries, I think you may have a point, I'm going to see it but I have concerns over the size and the cost of repayments leaving us with little free money.
I saw a house really close to the one you linked to, it may have been on for less, but that area is hellish, a rats nest of estates which I would not feel comfortable living near. After checking the place out with my folks we passed a shrine to some murder victim, noped the hell out of there...
TBF there have been 4 stabbings outside my flat in the last couple of years so it happens anywhere, but still...
I'm thinking Walthamstow may be the better option as its more residential and more chilled out. I'm on the bit of Grove road next to the park and the amount of sirens is crazy, plus the area is getting more and more popular its becoming London Fields Mk2.
I also looked at a place on Old Ford facing the park, 2 bed weird flat, the guys who owned it said they bought it for their mum about 30 years ago for 40k... they were asking a fair bit more than that.

For Victoria park houses like this are pretty good value at the moment

The startling thing now is that these houses were below 400k 6 years ago.
Oh and Chris coz I'm nosy I found your proposed gaff on Rightmove. it's a real nice house , but my only concern would be given the size , would you outgrow it quicker than you anticipate? They've made good use of the space and it's finished to a high standard but I'd probably want to do the extension which would cost 50k at least. And given its in the conservation area I don't think you would get permission to do any sort of loft conversion...
