Number 3 Home Farm Cottage And Estate Office At Basing Home Farm

Number 3 Home Farm Cottage and Estate Office at Basing Home Farm is an estate office and farm cottage built in 1865 for William Nicholson of Basing Park. The building is constructed of flint with red brick and tile-hung dressings, topped with clay plain tile roofs featuring gabled ends. It has brick lateral and axial stacks with set-offs. The layout of No. 3 is a mirror-image of No. 2 Home Farm Cottage, forming an L-shape with a stair tower at the angle and the estate office attached to the southeast. The design is in the Gothic style.

The exterior consists of two storeys with asymmetrical elevations and gabled cross-wings. It features large three-light wooden mullion windows with segmental arches on the ground floor and pointed arches on the first floor, which have tile-hung tympanae. The stair tower at the angle has a pyramidal roof and lancet windows, along with a porch. The attached estate office is single storey and includes a large three-light mullion-transom window in the gable end. The interior has not been inspected.
