Depends what you want I suppose, but your description is about right. Fairly quiet, and just nice.

That area Bovill Road, Garthorne, Whatman Road etc up to the High Street is one of the best bits of HOP in my opinion. Lots of families, neighbours knowing neighbours, generally really friendly. Quick walk to the train and high street, close to Blythe Hill and One Tree Hill as well the Rec by the station and not forgetting Barbur and Querce to eat out at.

If they are coming to party maybe not the best, if they are coming for a nice safe relatively quiet area it's great.

I don't live there by the way but not far on Brockley Rise.

Quick edit just to add, if they are moving here for schools I think Agnew Road some kids did not get in, not sure on the Stillness catchment this year. I kno Dalmain had a lot of siblings this year so maybe it will increase next year to 500/600 metres, I think it was just over 300 metres this year (pre reshuffle).
