Description
Craigcaffie Farmhouse is an irregular-plan farmhouse built in the early to mid 19th century. It is two stories high and has three bays, constructed of painted rubble with painted surrounds around the window openings.
On the southwest elevation, which serves as the entrance, there is an advanced gabled entrance featuring a corniced, pilastered doorpiece with a timber door and a letterbox fanlight above. A single window is aligned above the entrance on the first floor. The gablehead has a square plinth with a pyramidal finial and square skewputts. The flanking bays have regular fenestration, with canted windows on the ground floor and windows on the first floor that break the eaves to form gables, each topped with pyramidal finials.
The northeast elevation, or rear, has two single windows at ground level and a single window on the first floor in a gabled bay to the outer left. It also features square skewputts and a square plinth with a pyramidal finial at the gablehead, along with a single window in a recessed catslide section to the right.
The northwest side elevation has blank walls for two advanced gabled bays on the outer right and a blank elevation for a catslide section on the outer left. There is a glazed timber door with a letterbox fanlight in a recessed bay with a lean-to roof, along with two timber doors at the left re-entrant angle. The right re-entrant angle has two single windows on both the ground and first floors.
The southeast side elevation is three bays wide, with a single window at ground level in the advanced gabled bay to the outer left. The remaining bays have regular fenestration, and the first-floor windows break the eaves to form dormers. The central bay features modern windows.
The upper sashes of the timber sash and case windows on the southwest elevation have six panes, while the other elevations contain a mix of modern plate glass, four-pane, and ten-pane windows. The roof is covered with grey slate, and there are stone skews, corniced gablehead stacks, and polygonal cans.
The interior was not seen in 1999.
