Hello, we are considering moving to the Eltham Park area - we have a toddler and the location seems to tick the boxes in terms of schools/station (commute to the City)/parks etc.

Are there any particular roads that are more or less "desirable"? Well Hall Rd and Rochester Rd seem very busy with traffic whilst the others seem ok but I've only been in the weekend so not sure how peak times/school runs are like.

Also, the Edwardian houses look lovely on the outside and I read that the Corbett houses are generally well built but are there any maintenance issues that are common complaints (damp/leaks etc)? How is the sound proofing in those builds, especially in the terraced houses?

We are also considering New Eltham which seems a bit quieter but also further from amenities and we love being able to walk to places rather than driving everywhere.
