Home Farm House And Barns

Home Farm House and Barns is a model farm built around 1860 by Charles Buxton of Foxvarren Park, with assistance from Frederick Barnes. The buildings feature diaper patterned brick and plain tiled roofs for the cottage, while the farm buildings have Roman tiled roofs. The farm buildings are arranged around three sides of a rectangular courtyard, with the cottage located to the southeast and a pavilion to the northwest.

The cottage is rectangular, with a lower section at the rear. It has crow-stepped gables at both ends and a large chimney stack on the west side. The front is two storeys high, separated by a sawtooth brick band, while the rear is one storey with an attic that includes a bargeboarded gable dormer on the right. The main front has a three-light window on the first floor and a five-light window on the ground floor, alongside a planked door to the right, which is sheltered by a gabled porch with curved bargeboards. The right-hand return front features a single-storey gable with curved bargeboards and a spike finial.

The pavilion to the northwest is two storeys tall and has crow-stepped gables, a large star-shaped chimney on the west side, and a corbelled sawtooth band above the ground floor. It includes seven ventilation slits in triangular shapes in the gables and six arched panels below. The single-storey farm ranges between the buildings have brick arcading and a corbelled sawtooth band at the eaves, with triple gables on the east and north ranges, featuring curved bargeboards and spike finials.
