There is certainly an approx £10k premium on an E17 postcode north of the LBR, for essentially the same building. Further north in Walthamstow near Lloyd park the premium is probably closer to £30k. Kirsty and Phil LLL innit.
I’m in a Warner on Perth Road E10 and if you don’t mind living next to a massive building site for the next few years, there’s one at the far end of my road that’s been just put up for sale again (no doubt the sale fell through due to the prospective buyer discovering the building works due to begin imminently on the old gasworks adjacent). https://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/details/53537603/?search_identifier=c49f7d296938b978d0b131d4d5dd4d81
You’re welcome to pop round for a cuppa and chat about all things Warner/bikes if you like. I get a bit grumpy sometimes due to the upstairs flat having solid wood floors, but they’re not that bad I guess overall. I just think they’re overpriced for what they are, and people like Stow Brothers make a mint bigging them up to entice the Hackney folk relocating.

Thanks dude, that's really kind of you. My wife's sister just moved to the top of Kettlebaston Rd just over from you guys so I should have a bit more first hand experience of them over the next few weeks. I do think they're cute and I like the history, but I think for me when even places like these are going for £300k, an extra £50k to get a little house vibe feels worthwhile.
Unfortunately our budget is our budget @chrisbmx116 - we've got a decent batch of equity built up in our current place but we've also got a limited amount of time to pay the mortgage back, I'm getting old!
@Vesalius I should've said that I want to stay around here. My parents are in Zone 4 east and my work is in SE1, and I really want to keep cycling to work (whenever we end up back in teh office!). I really like the E10 bit of Lea Bridge Road.
I hear you on that, but I'm currently in an ex council flat and I've already got all those things, at least with a Warner I get my own front door. I can't see much else for £350k that has two beds around east Walthamstow/Leyton.
Speaking of, does location make a difference? I know the Warners up by Lloyds Park are way out of my league but there seem to be quite a few round Lea Bridge Road by the Aldi...
