Description

Home Idover Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse constructed of rubble stone with brick angles and a stone slate roof featuring end stacks. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a three-window range and two hipped dormers. Originally, the windows were 24-pane sashes, arranged in pairs on each side and a single window in the center above a six-panel door, which is topped by a slate hood supported by stone brackets. However, the original sashes have been replaced with 20th-century small-paned casements with top-lights, consisting of three lights on each side and two in the center. The farmhouse has timber lintels, and the original rear stair-light remains intact. There is a rear wing with a half-hipped gable and one first-floor 24-pane sash window, as well as a half-hipped rear range that is at a right angle to the rear wing. Inside, the farmhouse features an original full-height staircase with column newels.
