Homestead

Homestead is a detached house dating from the 20th century, featuring two storeys. The exterior is rendered with thick pebbledash and includes some applied half-timbering, timber weatherboarding on the gables, decorative tile dressings, and sills. It has a Welsh slate roof with decorative brickwork on the ridge and rear stacks, and overhanging sprocketed eaves. The house has an asymmetrical plan, with a gabled front entrance bay that angles across the L-shaped frontage.

On the left side, there is a ground floor bay window with five leaded casement lights and a flat roof, along with a garden recess. Above this, a four-light first floor window is topped with a hipped gable. The right wing features a similar first floor window and a canted bay with a deep battered plinth at the ground floor. The angled doorway has a hood and a vertically panelled front door that incorporates coloured glass. Above the door is a two-light window, and to the left is a long three-light staircase window with coloured glass that extends over two storeys.

The side garden elevation showcases a deep gable with three small windows at first floor level, and a pentice roof supported by posts over paired canted bays at the ground floor. The rear elevation has three asymmetrical gables. Most of the original leaded glazing has been retained, although some has been replaced in a similar style.

Inside, the house maintains its original layout and much of its detail, including vertical-panelled doors, surrounds, cupboards, staircase, and wooden floors. A notable feature is the deep inglenook fireplace in the front living room, which includes fitted settles and a low brick segmental arch.
