When we bought we did a spreadsheet with ‘average’ houses in different areas to see what the price diff was between diff zones of Leyton and Walthamstow.
I think generally e17, closer to the tube was 100k more than for a similar property in e10, (on the LBR/church Rd corner of the ‘golden triangle’ mentioned upthread) but I suspect that might have narrowed over the last two years.
With £27,500 stamp duty on an 800k house and renovating at current prices, I suspect you will need to do more than cross LBR to end up with a significantly lower mortgage, unless you are looking to downsize as well.
When I bought, I discovered that you could download Land Registry sold prices for whole postcodes. I had way more price data than the estate agents who certainly seemed to favour a finger in the air approach.
