It’s two houses before the cul-de-sac on the end.
Hello everybody.
I am not sure if I got the point. In the sentence 'It’s two houses before the cul-de-sac on the end' , it means it is the second house before the last blind alley or it means the second house in the last blind alley?
thanks so much.

I think the meaning of "cul-de-sac" varies. Around here in the US, you find them in housing developments, a short dead-end side road that ends in an open circle that your car can turn around in without reversing. Your excerpt seems to be saying that the road you will be on ends in one of those circles (on the end), which is a misuse of the word.
