Any East Dulwich expats in St Albans?

Recommended Posts

After years of procrastination the crystal7 family are leaving lovely East Dulwich (sob) due to lack of space. I would love to make contact with any ex locals living there or planning a move to Hertfordshire.


Any tips on relocating with children and how to settle into an area would be very welcome too!


Whether or not I will be able to give up my EDF habit remains to be seen...

Hi crystal7,


I am now ex-St Albans after moving back to ED last year so not quite what you are looking for.


However, if you need any advice on the merits of areas to live, etc.. feel free to be in touch.


I will add one thing, though....the CPZ will make your lives a misery so arm yourself with plenty of parking vouchers as you will not be able to stop anywhere near the town centre without one! [i still have some if needed!].


Its a lovely place, great for families, but I have a feeling that your EDF habit will remain strong.

Good luck!

Jacqui.

We moved to Harpenden and never looked back! Fantastic place to bring up a family. There are at least another three families that I know of who moved from ED/Camberwell. I don't actually keep an eye on the EDF anymore but for some reason decided to log on today! PM me with any questions.

    • As a resident in this part I would agree, with the proviso that it's quite hilly so not ideal cycling territory for the frailer or very much younger. Obviously good access to the South Circular, now virtually the only east: west route open after LTN closures. Only one blue plaque - C S Forester. Most houses are Victorian or Edwardian with some slightly earlier. Generally 4-6 Bedrooms depending on attic conversions.
    • Doesn't sound too dissimilar to my engagements with the council!   Zero chance of a balanced summary in a single place I am afraid - read anything by Peter Walker in the Guardian on the matter, then read anything in the Daily Mail on the matter and plot a course for somewhere between the two and there you shall find the truth!
    • Hi there,  Can anyone recommend a local (East Dulwich, Peckham) surveyors that also undertake Help to Buy valuations?  All my Google searches are throwing out national firms when popular advice is to appoint someone local who really understands the area you live in.  Any advice or recommendations would be welcome.  Thank you. 
    • Don't forget South end of Underhill Road.  Good sized houses with good sized gardens and short walk to Dulwich park, Dulwich Woods, Horniman and Peckham Rye.  Transport access in five different directions which is super useful and the little P13 gets you to Lordship Lane shops in no time. Easy parking.  IMO a little part of Dulwich underappreciated by some living right near East Dulwich shops but much liked by those that find their way to this quiet corner of Dulwich. Good luck to you
