JB1981 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Now then, for the same price in a nice South Sutton cul de sac we have this http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-36053125.html Now it needs some updating inside but is surely a much better bet than that heap of junk in carshalton ponds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHERWICK Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 No parking, not even close by? Check. Extremely noisy and congested road on your front door? Check. Average high street? Check. Pub with bad reputation opposite? Check. Okish transport links to London Bridge which will have severe disruption during a station remodel over next 5 years? Check. Nearest tube a 15 minute bus ride away +? Check. Cheap thin carpets, small concrete garden, boring decor throughout and average room sizes? Check. Looks like a public latrine? Check.

JB1981 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Looks like a public latrine? Check. A listed public latrine. So it smells of old shite and piss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abidova Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 to confirm I meant the area doesn't look that overpriced against what I would consider lesser neighboring areas (Morden, Mitcham). Not this particular place which is smaller than a lot of 2 bed flats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB1981 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 to confirm I meant the area doesn't look that overpriced against what I would consider lesser neighboring areas (Morden, Mitcham). Not this particular place which is smaller than a lot of 2 bed flats To be honest, I think Carshalton is over priced. There is one of the most deprived areas in the UK there (St Helier Estate), it is near riotsville (Croydon), and apart from a few nice villagey streets in Carshalton Beeches around Barrow Hedges school, it is generally very mediocre at best. Mitcham is definitely over priced - it is horrible. You could not pay me to live there if I had any choice or influence in the matter. Prices there should be 50% of the surrounding areas. Morden's housing stock is very run down in general, poor high street, and its only saving grace is Morden Park and the the Northern Line tube station (it's high street is shite too). Its prices are only as high as they are because of Wimbledon and Raynes Park being its next door neighbours, not because of any plus points in Morden itself.

abidova Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 The above mentioned latrine went on to be reduced to offers over £349.950 and is now under offer. Be interesting to see if it completes and if so at what price level Houses in these two areas look to be going fairly quickly still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
