Description
Sunny Hill Farmhouse is a Grade II* listed building that consists of three units, each featuring three windows, creating a total of nine windows facing south. The eastern unit serves as the parlour and is constructed differently from the rest of the house, featuring timber studding with shingles on the front elevation and boarding on the side and rear elevations. The left and central units are made of local stone, with the front rendered and scored. The central unit includes a room, entrance, and stairs, while the left unit contains the kitchen.
The roof is hipped at both ends and covered with slate, adorned with tile ridges. There are four large chimney stacks: two are located side by side where the left unit meets the central unit, and two are similarly positioned where the central unit meets the right unit. All four stacks are made of pale red brick and feature ornamental cornices. The two stacks serving the entrance hall and parlour are made of slightly different coloured brick, indicating that the parlour unit is not contemporary with the rest of the house. A cellar is present beneath the parlour unit only.
The left and central units have four-pane windows that have replaced 19th-century sashes, while the parlour unit retains original 12-pane windows with hornless sashes. The upper window in the end wall of the parlour is a Palladian window. The main entrance features a round-arched archway with tile details and splayed buttresses, likely dating from around 1900. The main doors behind the archway are elliptical-headed with interlaced glazing bars and open outwards.
There is a rear wing attached to the kitchen unit and a rear extension for stairs to the central unit, which features triple gables facing north. Inside, there are six-panel doors with matching fielded panels for linings and soffits. The door leading to the space beneath the stairs has two panels and H hinges. The staircase is easy with a close string, featuring rectangular newels and a moulded handrail. The upper flight has a balustrade in a Chinese style, likely dating from around 1760. The parlour is finished with a dentillated plaster cornice.
