Home Farm House

Home Farm House is a farm house built in 1881, as indicated by the date on the chimney. The building features red and brown brick at the lower level, with applied timber framing above on the right side and the right-hand return front. The first floor on the left is tile hung, some in fishscale bands. It has steeply pitched roofs covered with Roman pantiles and decorative ridge crests. The house has a T-shaped plan with a gable end to the right, positioned at right angles to the road.

The structure is two storeys high with attics, featuring tall multiple stacks on the left end and a ribbed and decorated multiple stack on the ridge of the cross wing. The entrance front has a first floor that projects on the gable to the right, supported by end brackets and a moulded bressumer. There is a 4-light casement window on the first floor, flanked by tension bracing, and a 10-light mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor, which has narrow side return lights in herring-bone brick bays. To the left, there is a ground floor window with a diagonal brick dentil course above it. The central entrance is set in a deep porch recess, featuring an ogee arch above and chamfered posts supporting brackets on either side, with a half-glazed door.

On the right-hand return front facing the road, there is a gabled dormer in the gable end range and a single-storey, flat-roofed extension to the right. The left-hand return front facing the yard has a ground floor window set diagonally across the corner and another door in a cat-slide set back to the left. Home Farm House is part of an unusually complete late example of a model farm.
