Right, and if you want to live in a "leafy green" part of zones 4, 5 and 6, with good transport into central London expect to pay close to zone 2 prices (e.g. Richmond, Wimbledon, even Beckenham, etc.). A 2 bed in Richmond will set you back £1400/month +. And that's a slightly amazing 40min commute (via Waterloo).

There are plenty of "leafy green" parts of Croydon, for example, where prices for a 2 bed is more in the 800-1000/month range. 1400/month will give you a large house with a garden many places here. Heck, if I could get 1400/month to rent out my 3 bedroom house with a garden, I'd have enough left after paying my mortgage to rent a 2 bed flat nearby (though that admittedly is because I struck it lucky with a very favorable tracker mortgage).
