Local shops, restaurants, cafes, and schools are also within easy reach on Wickham Road, with West Wickham High Street around 0.75 of a mile away.

The Gower B
This style of house is known locally as the Gower B. Held in regard due to the quality of build, this is a fine example of the 1930's architecture and construction; particularly impressive of this design is the size of the reception rooms and the fact that all three of the bedrooms are genuine doubles.

Extension Potential
Similar homes in the immediate area have been extended to the side, rear and into the loft space to provide additional bedrooms, bathrooms and further living spaces. This scope certainly exists here too, and obviously, any improvement of this nature will require the relevant local authority consents.
