Want to pretend you don’t live in a giant city? Move to Bexley. It’s green, quiet, and your money goes shockingly far.
Places like Bexleyheath and Sidcup have lovely Victorian houses with actual gardens. Imagine having a BBQ without your neighbors staring into your living room—radical, I know.
The commute? Trains to London Bridge or Charing Cross take about 25-40 minutes. That’s a podcast episode, not a nightmare. And you get proper parks, not just a patch of grass with a broken swing.
