Description

Upper Lupin Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century with later additions. It features a timber frame with brick additions that are painted to resemble timber framing, and it has a plain tile roof with brick stacks at the ends. The building has a two-framed bay baffle-entry plan that is aligned north-east to south-west and faces south-east. There is an early 19th-century single-bay extension to the south-west on the same alignment, as well as a late 19th-century single-bay rear wing to the north that is aligned north-west to south-east. The farmhouse has one storey and an attic, with three square panels at the eaves. It includes 20th-century casement windows on the left and in the center, and a 20th-century door to the right of center, which is topped by a bracketed canopy. The right gable displays an exposed roof truss with queen struts beneath the collar and a king strut above. The two-storey rear wing features three-light flat-face mullioned windows.
