The Avenue

Street guide, Gosport

The Avenue is one of Alverstoke's finest residential streets, a broad, tree-lined road running from the village centre towards the Anglesey area. The street is characterised by substantial detached Victorian and Edwardian villas set in generous gardens, many with original architectural details intact. St Mary's Church sits at the Alverstoke end, and the street has a distinctly genteel character. The mature trees that line both sides create a pleasant canopy in summer. The Avenue is popular with professional families and retirees who value the combination of period architecture, green surroundings, and the village atmosphere of Alverstoke. Property prices on The Avenue are among the highest in the borough.
