House prices are alarming across London - the average price of four bed houses is now £500,000 to £600,000! I've lived in HOP and Forest Hill for 11 years now, I have friends here and I love the area but we're priced out if we want to move on from our flat! But then I think of the opportunities the move has opened up - where we are moving to has easy access to some of the most beautiful countryside and coast! So it's not all bad!
