Narration (human voiceover, never raw TTS for a property audience)
This is Beckenham. And this is Croydon, right next door. Same station. Same secondary school catchment. The same kind of home: terraced houses built around 1940. On every measure that moves price, they're twins. But watch the price per square metre. Beckenham: £7,153. Croydon: £4,910. That's 31% cheaper, about £201,870 on a typical 90-square-metre home, for the same life, one postcode over. You're not paying for the house. You're paying for the name. You can find the cheaper twin of any postcode in England on the map for free, no signup.
