Description

Croff-y-Cyff is a 1½-storey, 2-window house built on a sloping site, featuring an attached lower stable at the downhill end and a lower cart shed at the uphill end. The house is constructed of limewashed rubble stone, while the stable and cart shed are made of rubble stone painted white. The roofs are slate, except for the left-hand bay of the cart shed, which has a corrugated iron roof. The house has brick end stacks.

The openings of the house are offset to the right side. There is a boarded door under a brick segmental head, flanked by small 4-pane sash windows with similar heads. Above these are small casement windows located beneath the eaves. In the right gable end, above the stable roof line, there is a small attic window on the left. The open-fronted 2-bay cart shed has a central rubble-stone pier.

The stable features a brick segmental-headed boarded door located left of centre with strap hinges, alongside a small-pane casement window to its left. To the right, there is a split boarded door at a lower level, following the slope of the ground, also under a brick segmental head. The gable end of the stable has a boarded loft door with brick dressings.

At the rear, the house has an added lean-to with a corrugated iron roof. To the right of this lean-to is a casement window beneath the eaves, and a small segmental-headed window in the lower right corner, set in a brick surround with a segmental head. The rear of the stable includes a simple lean-to garage with a small added projection behind. The property has not been inspected.
