Description

Closer view of my Gentleman Farmer's house in the accompanying farm panorama. Click Here Estimating that this house dates to the late 1800s. From the size, the original family must have been BIG. Farmers liked lots of kids...all the more hands around the farm:-) Bill:) Worth a ZOOM.

I love the green roof and shutters. I bet it's beautiful in summer when the trees are all leafed out! Lovely place.

Beautiful shots and great subjects. You're right, the place is way too neat to be a working farm, it's also too neat to be currently lived in. This makes me wonder if it's a deceased estate recently cleaned up and ready for sale.

Very interesting! They obviously had no time to make a garden, or no interest!

What a very pretty farmhouse this is! With all those windows, it was easy to 'air condition' the house during the summer years ago. Just imagine sitting on that wonderful porch and sipping a mint julep on a warm summer's eve!

Outstanding shot of a beautiful house. If it holds true to architecture of the time, the kitchen is the outcropping on the left rear --only one chimney on the house so must have been late 1800's and more modern heating system, or farmer Brown and all the little Browns had some cold feet when they got up to milk the cows.

really nice choices, really nice how the house is backed by that high tree & almost flanked by trees around it. And your slight angle allows us to see its shadow & contrasts as well as its big bold sun-drenched facade. And we get the flanking trees to both sides, as well as the slope of the land. It's lovely to see that slope in the background. And I like skipper's comment: he apparently knows the structure of these houses, that yes, the one chimney shows its age & tells us that winters weren't an easy time...Very nice shot, and another in your many captures of this very rich landscape and heritage...

Ha! Lovely picture AND in a farmhouse in fine condition. But you know what it reminds me of? Texas Chainsaw Massacre! Ha! Ha! But in better condition....and without the bodies! Lovely picture, my friend. Pristine colours. Rob.

An excellent portrait of a proud house. It may not be a working farm but if not then it's a grand residence where the grass is manicured and the fences are kept in pretty good condition.
