house

End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey house, built c. 1935 as part of terrace of four, with box-bay window to ground floor front under lean-to canopy running length of front elevation and continuing along terrace. Hipped slate roof with red brick chimneystack, and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Canopy supported on box-bay window and on timber posts with panel detailing. Square-headed openings with concrete sills and margined one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, double to box-bay window. Square-headed two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window with concrete sill to north elevation. Square-headed entrance opening having timber panelled half-glazed door, overlight and timber architrave. Approached by flight of concrete steps set back from street with site bounded by rendered walls with concrete coping and rendered square-profile piers to entrance with timber gate.

This house forms part of a terrace of four similar structures, whose style and intact form make them an unusual and notable feature within Fermoy. The façade is enlivened by features typical of its time, such as the box-bay window and canopied entrance, and enhanced by the retention of the timber sash windows and timber door. The site is given context and enhanced by the boundary wall and pedestrian entrance.
