Description

Elberry Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse located on Elberry Lane in Broadsands. It features solid roughcast walls and a slated roof, with two rendered chimneys symmetrically placed on the ridge. The building is two storeys high and four windows wide, with the outer windows set in gabled cross-wings that have plain bargeboards. The windows are 6-paned sashes.

In front of the house, which faces southeast, there is a large rectangular garden surrounded by a high wall made of Devonian limestone rubble. The wall has a rounded coping of stones on edge, except for a slightly taller section along Elberry Lane, which features a flat stone coping. The farmhouse is part of a planned layout that includes two courtyards of farm buildings and a cart shed.
