Description
Home Farm is a symmetrical, two-storey building with a cellar, featuring a three-window main range and a rear gabled wing that creates an L-shaped plan, along with an additional extension at the back. It is built from rubble masonry and topped with a tiled roof. The main range has two external gable stacks and a large masonry lateral stack on the east side of the rear wing. The building is oriented east-west, with the front facing north.
The front entrance is marked by a central panelled and ribbed door with a three-pane overlight, flanked by multi-pane windows. The upper storey has similar but shorter windows. The windows throughout the building are paired sashes, with eight panes in the lower storey and six panes above, all set under segmental heads with voussoirs and Tudor-style hoodmoulds typical of buildings on the Glanusk Estate.
On the east gable of the main range, there is an eight-pane sash window to the left of the stack at ground floor level, featuring a stone sill and lintel. The south gable end of the rear wing has a three-light casement window with multiple panes on each storey, both with voussoirs and Tudor-style hoodmoulds. A rear entrance is located in the centre of the main range, consisting of a planked door beneath a stone-tiled canopy. Above this entrance is a three-light casement window under a segmental arch, which does not have a hoodmould. To the west of the rear entrance, there is a catslide outshut attached to the main range. The west wall of the house is rendered, and the outshut features two-light casement windows, one on each storey. A single-storey rear wing extends from the outshut, topped with a steeply pitched hipped roof that has a stone-tiled finish and extends to form a pentice. The eaves are supported by timber posts on the east and south sides, with rebuilt brick pillars on the west side. This wing includes a planked door on the east side and a 20th-century three-light casement window on the west side.
Inside, there is a wide central stair hall with a dog-leg staircase leading to the rear. The large main rooms are located to the left and right, featuring panelled doors. Steps descend to the service areas in the catslide section, while the dining room is situated in the rear wing.
