The significance of the property is not for the architecture of its farmhouse, but rather as a remarkably intact site where a number of small-scale industrial enterprises were conducted.

The farm is now 8 acres (3.2 ha) in size, with a cluster of buildings set near the road.

Its main facade is five bays wide, with a slightly asymmetrical arrangement around a center entrance.

[2] The farm property provides evidence of early activity leading to two major cottage industries that flourished in 19th-century Coventry: the production and processing of flax, and the raising of sheep and processing of wool.

Asa Parker Jr. was by 1820 also raising sheep on the property, a practice continued by his daughter and son-in-law, the Hutchinsons.
