Three-bedroom home with long front garden and sun-trap courtyard in walk-in condition
built by the Great Southern & Western Railway in 1850 for its workers. Built as an estate around central greens with connecting lanes and large gardens designed for growing vegetables, the agricultural nature of this area, known as the Works estate, is evident in the named lanes connecting the North and South terraces, such as Cowshed Lane.
The end-terrace home is double-fronted and has a long front garden leading to the front door, topped by a delicate fanlight. The door opens to the foot of stairs and to the right is a lovely sittingroom, with a wooden carved fireplace, slate hearth and wood-burning stove. The ceilings are high, the floors are stained wood and French doors can be thrown open from here on to a small sunny courtyard that has a secure gate opening on to a lane outside.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of which are good-sized doubles. Railway heritage is alluded to with an iron plaque over the bathroom door, exhorting drivers of the Southern Railway to keep their engines quiet and avoid annoyance to residents.
