Description
Oaktee Farmhouse is a house, originally a farmhouse, dating to the 16th and 17th centuries. It is timber framed and has colourwashed render and a plaintile roof. The house is L-shaped and has a single storey with an attic and two storeys. The entrance front features a projecting gabled wing on the left with a canted bay window to the ground floor and a tripartite window above. To the right of this, recessed, is a main wing with a projecting gabled porch with a plank door and muntins. There are two-light casement windows to either side of the porch. Two gabled dormer windows are situated in the attic above. Further to the right of the front is a single two-storey bay with a three-light casement window on the ground floor and a two-light casement above. Axial stacks are visible at the ridge, one with three flues and another with two. A plank door leads to the basement at the right-hand end, and a two-light casement window is located on the first floor. A projecting wing is on the left-hand side, and a canted bay with a hipped tile roof containing three lights to the front and single lights to the sides is positioned in the gable end. A flat-roofed 20th-century addition is located to the left of this, with a three-light casement and a glazed door. The rear features a 20th-century gabled wing with a flat roof, alongside a further 20th-century addition. A lean-to, also of 20th-century date, is found in the re-entrant angle. A two-light window is situated to the left at ground floor level, and a further gabled dormer is visible in the attic above it.
The interior includes chamfered ceiling beams to the ground floor rooms with joists having stepped run-out stops; some timbers have been cut out, and replacements inserted in the 20th century. Jowled wall posts are present in the passage, and wall posts and chamfered ceiling beams are found in the cross wing. Close studding and angle braces line the walls at first floor level.
