Speaking of crazy house prices, just saw that a 7 bed house on our street (we live in a 2 bed flat), sold for £4.6m in 2016. This is the Lewisham side of SE10, zone 2/3. The previous owner bought it for £600k in 1995.
The house next door is rumoured to be going on the market soon. Its identical in every way apart from the fact it has a 1 acre garden with pool and tennis court instead of a "normal" sized garden. Will be interesting to see how much it is valued for because the garden is large enough to build three mansions, each with private road access. My friend, who is a property developer, reckons it'll go for roughly £15m. Not bad for a house in the same borough as Catford :p
