Montgrove Farmhouse

Montgrove Farmhouse is a farmhouse built between 1740 and 1760, with a parallel south range added in the early 19th century. The northern range is made of red brick in Flemish bond, while the southern range is constructed from white brick that has been painted, featuring steep pitched red tile roofs, with the southern range having a gambrel roof. The house is tall, consisting of two storeys, a cellar, and attics, and it faces north over a courtyard of farm buildings situated at a lower level.

The northern front is symmetrical, three windows wide, with end chimneys that project and a rear stair. It has a slightly projecting pedimented center, a plinth, a plat-band, and box eaves, with brackets added in the early 19th century to match the southern front. The first floor features two sash windows with 10/10 panes and segmental arches, along with a two-light casement window above the entrance. A semi-circular lunette window is centrally located in the attic. The entrance has a battened door that is accessed by two steps, topped with a flat moulded hood. The ground floor has two-light small-pane casement windows with cambered heads.

The southern front is also three windows wide, with recessed sash windows featuring 2/2 panes and flat gauged arches. It has paired brackets at the eaves cornice, two triple sash windows on the ground floor, and a moulded four-panel door in the middle, set within a glazed screen under a lean-to open timber porch. There is a small window to the right of the porch. The southern range contains internal gable fireplaces and a stair in the entrance hall that replaces an older stair from the northern range. The interior of the northern range includes two cross-beams in each room and a central lobby.
