A building on a farm that is not a dwelling.

Use building=house for the farmhouse. In some countries the farmhouse has distinct features different from a general house and therefore building=farm is used.

You can tag the surrounding area of the farm as landuse=farmyard possibly with landuse=residential around residences.
