Alexandra Drive is a lovely road to live on. In the 22 years I've lived in London this is the only road where I know more than just my next door neighbour. Its proximity to the station (all of 3 mins walk), the dry cleaners, cafe, pub, indian takeaway and the corner shop make it a prime location, in particular for commuters. Parking can be a bit tricky during the day as people use Alexandra Drive to leave their car for the day as it's bang next door to the station. However, after 6pm, it's much easier to find a space. We live in a ground floor flat, on the even numbers so there is no real view from our windows, however I'm told that if you have a property on the opposite side then there are great views of the City.
