Description
Blue House Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse. The ground floor is constructed of brown brick in Flemish bond, while the first floor is weatherboarded. It features a plain tile roof and has a double depth design with two storeys. The hipped roof has hips that return to the right and left, with lower ridges at the rear. There is a rear stack on the left and a slender stack at the right end. The front has a regular arrangement of three windows, consisting of 12-pane glazing-bar sashes, with the central window being smaller. A central panelled door is located under a simple wooden porch. Lean-tos have been added to the right and left, with the one on the right being a 20th-century addition. The interior has not been inspected.
