Description
Baucombe and the adjoining barn to the south are a farmhouse and barn built around the 1840s. The structure is made of stone rubble with a rendered front and features a slate hipped roof that spans a single section at the front and two sections at the rear, creating a U-shaped plan. There are stone rubble stacks with brick shafts located on the rear ridges, including a large stack on the right-hand side. The building has a square, double depth plan with a projecting single depth wing on the south and a barn that projects at right angles.
It is two storeys high with a symmetrical, three-window west front that has incised lines on the render. The ground floor contains two 19th-century 16-pane sash windows flanking a contemporary gabled porch with a slate roof. The entrance features a four-centred arch with a plank door and a fanlight above. The windows in the side walls have pointed heads, and above, there are three additional 19th-century 16-pane sashes. The rear elevation is almost symmetrical and showcases complete 19th-century fenestration beneath cut stone arches.
The adjoining domestic wing and barn to the south are also constructed of stone rubble with a slate roof and a hipped end, and they are slightly lower than the main range. There are steps leading to the loft on the south side. The interior has not been inspected, but the owner believes it may have originally served as a hunting lodge for the Lifton estate.
