More than meets eye

AN old house run over with a modern brush, 1, Everleigh Villas on Cork’s Blackrock Road has more to it than meets the eye.

The three storey property has a hidden extra - a one-bedroomed basement, with just about head height but a handy extra room for storage, a hobbyist or some other hideaway niche uses. (It currently has garden access only.)

The Victorian terraced home is at the city end of the Blackrock Road, opposite Ashton second level school which is waiting for a new building.
