I recently came across a fantastic article by Poppy in *News Shopper* that highlights what we at **Beckenham.net** already know—Beckenham is one of London’s hidden gems! Lisa from John D Wood & Co. describes the growing interest in million-pound homes, and it’s easy to see why. Beyond the property market, Beckenham offers so much more: beautiful parks, a strong community feel, and a range of independent shops, including favorites like Em’s. Beckenham isn't just a place to live—it's a lifestyle.
