A farmhouse is a type of
building or
house which serves a
residential purpose in a
rural or
agricultural setting. Most often, the surrounding environment will be a
farm. These buildings are usually 2 stories, but early buildings were single story.These buildings tend to be more
pragmatic than
aesthetic, but often well-stocked or well-furnished in terms of
food,
insulation or in other aspects dealing with daily necessities. The supply of agricultural products from its environment tends to be a factor for this, as well as stressing the need for
productivity and pragmatism in the survival of the farm. The farmhouse allows the
farmers,
workers and often their families to reside in proximity to their workplace - namely the farm in question. This allows the farmers and workers to arrive at the workplace earlier, increasing the productivity of the farm.
