Bottom Line

Within target areas (a–g), all suitable homes have already been contacted. Only 2 are within the 1500 GP budget:

#1138403 Turnpike Lane — 127 GP/night, 4 beds, 889 GP total — ✓ budget · 27 min, 1 change (Bus 141 → 144)
#2381450 Finsbury Park — 161 GP/night, 4 beds, 7-night min, 1127 GP total — ✓ budget · 27 min direct (Bus W7)

Expanded areas result: 10 new uncontacted listings found, but none meet both budget and 40-min transport criteria:

Only Marianna's Bounds Green (N11) is within 40 min (36 min, bus 299 direct) — but costs 1,750 GP and is available Dec 15–22 only.
Stoke Newington / Hackney / Clapton listings: within budget but 50–65 min to Muswell Hill (all ⛔ exceed 40-min limit).

Recommendation: follow up on existing contacts (#1138403 and #2381450). If neither responds, consider relaxing distance rule to include Stoke Newington N16 (52 min via bus 141 → 144).
