Description

Kimberhead Farmhouse is a house that has been converted into a farmhouse, built around 1865 and extended in the late 19th or early 20th century. The structure features flint with stucco dressings and a timber-framed design, along with a brick rear wing. It has a scalloped Welsh slate roof with deep eaves and verges at the gable ends, which are adorned with wavy bargeboards, brackets, and long pendants. There are brick lateral stacks at the rear and an axial stack in the rear wing.

The farmhouse has a single-depth layout with an entrance porch located to the left of the center and a later wing added at the center of the rear, accompanied by a later outshut in the north-west angle. The building is designed in a picturesque Gothic style and stands two stories tall. The first floor is timber-framed with plastered infill and jetties on all sides. The south front is asymmetrical with three windows and features a gabled two-storey porch to the left of center, supported by thin posts and featuring a four-centred arch doorway with a ledged door and a lancet window above.

The windows are cross-mullion-transom types with leaded panes, chamfered wooden frames, and heavy cills supported by modillions. Each gable end has a similar canted bay window on the ground floor and a lancet window on the first floor. The right (east) gable end is advanced at the center, with rebated corners, long pendants, and curved brackets similar to the other gables. The east end lancet window features a moulded oriel cill. The plain brick rear wing has casement windows with glazing bars and a later outshut in the north-west angle. The interior has not been inspected.
