Description

Rarey Farmhouse is a late 18th-century farmhouse that was altered and extended in 1849, as indicated by a datestone. The house is constructed of red mottled brick in English garden wall bond, with an extension in orange mottled brick, and features a pantile roof. The attached wall is made of red and plum brick in English garden wall bond, topped with sandstone coping.

The farmhouse is two stories high with a three-window front and a two-story, one-window extension on the right. The main entrance has a center door with four panels beneath a divided overlight, framed by a pilaster-and-cornice doorcase. Above the door, the datestone is inscribed with "M D L 1849." All windows are 16-pane sashes with painted sills and lintels, and the original windows have tooled detailing. The gables are coped, with shaped kneelers, and there are chimney stacks at the left end and right-of-center. The attached wall is approximately 1.5 meters high, ramping up at the house end and featuring flat coping.
