Detached L-plan three-bay two-storey with dormer attic house, built c. 1840, with flanking crenellated single-storey bays, gablets, gabled porch and square-headed dormer window to front (west) elevation. Gabled block to rear (east). Terracotta tiled roof with rendered chimneystacks, timber bargeboards and cast-iron rainwater goods. Square-headed dormer window with timber surround. Roughcast rendered walls with smooth render plinth course. Square-headed blind openings to north and south blocks. Square-headed openings to first floor with render sill course and bipartite pointed arch one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed openings to ground floor with render label mouldings and tripartite pointed arch one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows having roundels to spandrels. Pointed arch one-over-one pane timber sliding sash window to dormer window. Square-headed openings to north, south and rear elevations with bipartite one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed opening to porch with timber panelled half-glazed door. Rubble stone boundary wall to west.
Forming a pair with house to south, of almost identical design and detailing, creates coherent design with end chimneystacks, outer gabled bays, central dormer window and gabled porch. Retains notable features such as pointed arch tripartite and bipartite windows, tiled roof and bargeboards. Probably originally associated with Ballynoe House, these houses many have been built to accommodate estate worker's.

RosscuanHouse · 29 yd

Explorer Tom Rosscuan in Ballynoe is part of a pair of identical houses that probably argue about whose dormer window is slightly better. They were built for estate workers, which means they’ve seen some real drama over the years.

GlenviewHouse · 62 yd

Explorer Tom Glenview in Ballynoe is a 1900 gem with a gabled bay and verandah. The render variety adds interest, and the bargeboards are doing their best to look aristocratic. It’s a coherent style that says 'I’m from the Edwardian era, so deal with it.'

Explorer Tom Ballynoe bridge is part of a railway group and the local rabbits think it’s a giant concrete salad bowl. Go on, imagine the trains that used to rattle past those imposing limestone piers every day!

Ballynoe VillaHouse · 112 yd

Explorer Tom Ballynoe Villa in Ballynoe sits on the shoreline with steep gables that look like they’re trying to reach the clouds. It was home to Abraham Hargrave, who probably thought his tea was better than everyone else’s. Leave your ego at the quay and enjoy the view.

Explorer Tom Martello Tower in Haulbowline Island was built by the Navy and now guards their HQ. It’s got wooden stairs and a water tank up top. Tell it I said g'day from across the harbour, will you?
