Description
Bacchus is a detached farmhouse built in the mid-18th century, with back wings added around 1840. The building features ashlar limestone on the front, brick for the rear wings, and a replacement concrete tile roof with ashlar chimneys. It is three storeys tall with a cellar in the front range and two storeys in the back wings.
The front of the farmhouse has a three-window arrangement and a crenellated parapet topped with three crocketed finials. There is an off-centre porch leading to a doorway that has a square head and a six-panel fielded door. The porch features a chamfered Tudor arch and gabled design, with Tudor-arched lancets on the sides. All windows are chamfered mullioned with hood moulds and leaded casements, including a centrally located two-light window, flanked by four-light windows on the ground and middle floors, and a three-light window on the upper floor.
On the north side, there is a gable on the right with single-window fenestration and a central offset buttress that partly blocks a mullioned casement at the cellar and ground floor. The middle floor has a three-light casement, while the upper floor has a blocked two-light window. The left brick wing features a 16-pane sash window with a cambered arch on the upper floor and a leaded casement below, which has a timber plaque inscribed 'DAIRY' to avoid window tax.
The south side mirrors the north with mullioned casements, but the ground floor windows have leading. The back of the farmhouse has three gables, with the central one built of stone and flanked by brick. It features a central four-light mullioned casement with a hood, while the other windows are timber casements. There is a louvred attic vent in the central gable and two chimney stacks with paired diagonal shafts and moulded caps at the back of the front range. The garden is terraced at the front, with stone steps leading to the front door.
