Description

Looedown Farmhouse and the attached barn are a farmhouse and threshing barn dating from the 18th century, with an early 19th-century extension on the left and a mid-19th-century threshing barn on the right. The early 19th-century part features slate hanging, while the original house is made of painted rubble, and the barn has slatestone rubble walls. The roofs are slate, hipped over the house extension and gable-ended elsewhere. The original house has an axial rubble stack in the middle and a slate-hung stack over the rear wall of the extension. The building has a single-depth plan, except for the double-depth extension to the house.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has an overall four-window range. The original house, which has an irregular one-window range at the centre, features a central old lean-to porch with a planked door and an integral coach house with double planked doors to its right. The two-window extension on the left has original sashes with glazing bars, including a tall stair window, and a doorway towards the left with a panelled door. The barn on the right has a central first-floor threshing/loading doorway with divided planked doors beneath a slate hood, a 20th-century lean-to under the doorway, a shuttered window on the left, a small window opening above, and pigeon holes under the eaves. There is also a further loading doorway at the right-hand end. The house has a two-window left-hand return with original sashes, including a tripartite sash on the left with glazing bars.

The interior has not been inspected, but a former listing description mentions a bread oven and associated chimney furniture.
