Description
The Home Farmhouse is a small, high-quality late medieval house located on the east side of High Road in Ickenham. It features a jettied gabled end facing the road and has an east extension added in 1705. The building is two storeys high with one window and has high-pitched tiled roofs with old chimneys. The original section is tile hung above with Victorian fishscale tiles, and it has stout square framing with brick filling visible below. The early 18th-century extension is made of light red brick and includes a first-floor band. The house has 19th-century casement windows and much exposed timber work inside. The interior features a side purlin roof with stout wind braces, flat joists, and hollow-chamfered beams, with the chamfer continuing through the braces to the posts. There is also a modern small extension to the north-east.
