Description
Home Farmhouse is a house, originally a farmhouse, built in the mid to late 18th century. It was altered and extended around 1830 and renovated around 1970. The house is constructed of painted red brick and 19th-century brick, with plain tiled and slated roofs. It has a red brick side stack on the right and gault brick rear stacks. The house is two storeys high, with cellars.
The original symmetrical front elevation was altered around 1830, with the original entrance blocked. A new side entrance was created. The main south-west facade has three bays, marked by a dentil brick eaves cornice. It features three first-floor flush-framed sash windows with twelve panes each. A central ground-floor sash window with twelve panes was inserted into the original doorway. A canted, flat-roofed bay window is on the right, with sash windows, and a wide twelve-paned sash window recessed in a segmental brick arch is on the left.
The main side entrance, on the south-west, has a six-raised and fielded-panelled door with patterned metal glazing bars to a fanlight, set within an open pediment with dentil enrichment and a cornice with console brackets.
The interior includes a 19th-century closed string staircase, deep skirting boards, and four-panelled doors with moulded architraves. Three Rococo 18th-century chimney pieces, possibly introduced around 1970, are also present.
