Oh yeah was that near the A205?
Was looking around there and was a mite surprised at the price, agent said something that it’s;
Seller putting a high price and won’t budge.
“Closer” to central London than CP
Different Council, apparently it make a difference.All of the above could well be completed bullshit tho.
edscoble-
Sydenham hill/Rise so just off it.
i looked at sold prices and it was in the ball-park, i just couldn’t see what the premium got you.
can’t see how it’s closer when the sydenham hill line gets you to victoria direct via brixton (not on the victoria-london bridge loop) or a change at Herne hill to thameslink yet still the gipsy hill option which is a few mins walk away.
Maybe it’s the closeness to Catford and the animal magnetism of Amey?

I looked at a property in FH a few weeks ago that was exactly the same as ones built in crystal palace (mid century modernist flat) same build time, construction and layout, except it was on a noisy feeder road for the south circular, no shops nearby, no green space round the building and only one rail route not 3 like the CP option.
it was over 10% more expensive, i just couldn’t work out why? the agent didn’t have an answer either!?
Maybe it’s a school thing, no kids so we are not interested in that and TBH the further from schools the better.
