Description
64 Queen's Road in Aberdeen is a villa designed by John Rust in 1901. It is a two-storey building with an attic and features three bays. The southeast elevation is made of finely finished tooled coursed grey granite, while the rest of the building is constructed from coursed granite rubble. The design includes a rough-faced base course, a dividing band course, an eaves course, and overhanging eaves with a dentil cornice.
The principal elevation is symmetrical, featuring a square-plan open porch that projects from the center of the ground floor. This porch is supported by Tuscan columns and pilasters and has a dramatic sun-burst pediment detail. Stone steps lead to the doorway, which is flanked by decorative iron railings. The entrance consists of a pilastered panelled timber door with glazed panels and a letterbox fanlight above. There is a single window at the center of the first floor and a round-arched dormer in the attic. The ground and first floors have three-light canted windows that end in piended roofs. At the apex of the attic, there is a rectangular-plan glazed lantern with pilastered depressed-arched openings, flanked by stepped down dormers.
The northeast elevation is asymmetrical, with windows on the right side at both the ground and first floors, and a two-storey addition on the outer right with irregular openings. The northwest elevation features a two-storey wing that advances to the left, a lean-to addition at the ground floor, and a stained glass window at the center of the first floor, flanked by a bipartite window. There is also a rectangular dormer in the attic. The southwest elevation is symmetrical, with a single window at the center of the first floor.
The villa predominantly has two-pane and four-pane timber sash and case windows, with small-pane leaded and stained glass upper sashes at the ground floor. The roof is covered in piended grey slate with lead ridges, and there are corniced wallhead stacks with circular cans. The building features cast-iron rainwater goods.
Inside, the villa has been divided into flats. Some original mouldings, doors, and architraves remain, although the staircase has been removed. There are fireplaces in the principal rooms, some of which are later additions.
The property also includes gatepiers and boundary walls, featuring corniced square-plan gatepiers on the southeast side, which are shared with adjacent properties. There is a low coped rough-faced granite wall between the gatepiers, and granite and brick coped rubble walls make up the remainder of the boundary.
