Move up north and spend that £1.125 million though and you can get stables and a swimming pool for the real baller style.

And when you change your mind a few years later you'll find that you can't even buy the equivalent place before it was done up as London house prices have accelerated faster than everywhere else.
(Had that happen to more than a few friends. The number that have successfully left London and not looked back are few and far between. Even then they're reminded that if they had stuck it out for a few more years they'd be looking at a larger pile or an even earlier retirement.)

The worst part is, you spend £1.125 million to buy a pokey Victorian worker’s terrace house in Homerton, surrounded by dodgy neighbours, scary schools and you won’t even feel like a baller.
