Get nearby street addresses within

I would like to get a list of all street addresses in a small range on geo-information.

The usage scenario is designed so that the user can select his current address from the list of addresses (within, say, 50 meters) of the current location, since the search for the location will not be accurate enough.

I am wondering if this is possible using the Google Maps API? Otherwise, does anyone know an alternative API that I can use for this purpose?

From what I saw, although Google maps reverse geocoding service returns a few “addresses” for geoinformation, they usually are just different representations of the address, not the address near the location.

I saw some similar questions on SO, but I didn’t have the answers I'm looking for.

I managed to get the results I was looking for using a combination of APIs.

First I get the names of nearby streets using Geonames' Find nearby streets

Then, for each street, I get geo-information and start it with the TomTom reverse geocoding method of my Map Toolkit API , which gives me the min and the maximum number of street numbers for each street.
