Description

Bodafon Isaf is a Georgian two-story farmhouse with an attached domestic wing to the rear, incorporating a modern lean-to addition in the southeast angle. The farmhouse is constructed of rubble masonry, finished with smooth rendering, and has a slate roof with rendered, rectangular gable stacks topped with capping. The main facade faces north towards the road and features a symmetrical three-bay arrangement. A central doorway is sheltered by a simple porch, formed of a single slate slab supported on chamfered timber piers, one of which is now missing. The doorway has engaged pilasters with a key pattern design and is topped with a shallow rectangular fanlight divided by glazing bars. The windows are hornless 12-pane sashes with slate sills. A similarly detailed window is on the east return at ground floor level, with a smaller four-pane sash window above it on the first floor. The west return has modern windows.

The service wing, which may pre-date the main farmhouse, appears less refined. It now has a single doorway on the north side, above which is a small four-pane sash window, and two modern casement windows to the right. The gable stack is built of rubble masonry, limewashed, and has dripstones; a brick stack has been added abutting the original.

Attached to the southwest corner of the service wing is an agricultural range, likely a stable range, running linearly and incorporating a loft. Built of rubble masonry, the entrance elevation is limewashed, and the roof is covered in small slates with a tiled ridge. The north-facing elevation has three small window openings, each with a doorway between. The opening on the west side has been widened, and chamfered dressed stones have been reset to form a rough arch. Other ground floor windows have timber frames and internal shutters; a similarly detailed window is positioned above the right-hand doorway. A small paned hornless sash window is located on the first floor at the far left of the range, with a larger four-pane horned sash window set under the eaves to its right. The rear of the range features three ground floor ventilation holes and a large modern light inserted into the gable at the west end.

Inside the main farmhouse, a central tiled hallway provides access to the principal rooms, and the staircase has a moulded rail with stick balusters. The interior has been modernized but retains some beaded boarded doors, panelled window shutters and soffits, and one sitting room features a beaded boarded ceiling with moulded dividers. The service wing has some exposed chamfered trusses. The interior of the attached agricultural range was not inspected.
