Description

Tresidder Farmhouse, built in the early to mid-19th century, includes front garden walls, gate piers, and a gate. The front of the farmhouse is stuccoed with rusticated granite dressings, while the main fabric is granite rubble. The roof is mostly scantle slate, half-hipped, with sections replaced by asbestos slate at the front. Brick chimneys rise from the side walls.

The house follows a double-depth rectangular plan, and incorporates a dairy at the rear right-hand corner. The front features two rooms; a parlour to the left, and a former kitchen/dining room to the right, with an entrance hall between them. This leads to a stair hall positioned between two rear rooms – a back parlour on the left and a back kitchen on the right. A later 19th-century service wing adjoins the left side.

The symmetrical, three-window south-west front has a central round-headed doorway with a 20th-century door and original traceried fanlight. The front features a granite ashlar plinth, rusticated granite detailing around the doorway, rusticated granite quoins, and incised stucco. The windows are original 12-pane hornless sashes.

Inside, the interior remains largely unchanged with many original features, including an open-well open-string staircase, a moulded and carved ceiling cornice, a marble chimney-piece within the parlour, and six-panel doors.

The front garden is rectangular and enclosed by granite rubble walls on three sides. A central gateway, where the walls return towards the house, incorporates a flight of granite steps and a likely original wrought-iron gate.
