Description

3 Hamilton Place is a villa built in the later 19th century, featuring three bays and designed with Scots Baronial details. The exterior is constructed from finely finished tooled Aberdeen bond granite, with a base course, chamfered reveals, and segmental-arched openings on the ground floor.

The northwest elevation is asymmetrical, with a central doorway in the ground floor's middle bay. This doorway has a moulded lintel with a keystone detail, a panelled timber door, and is flanked by glazed panels, topped with a fanlight that reads "3 Hamilton Lodge." To the left of the doorway is a single window, while above, there are two gableted windows that break the eaves, featuring thistle and fleur-de-lys finials at the apex and floreate paterae in the gableheads. An angle turret is located on the outer left, which is circular in plan, corbelled out at the first floor, and has a single window at the center topped by a conical roof. To the right, a slightly advanced gabled bay contains a ground floor window with a keystone detail at its center and a three-light canted oriel window corbelled out above, topped with a decorative stone finial.

The southwest elevation features a bowed bay that extends through both the ground and first floors to the left, while the remainder of this elevation was not visible in 2000. The southeast elevation was also not seen in 2000. The northeast elevation is gabled and has single windows at the center of both the ground and first floors.

The villa predominantly features two-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is made of grey slate with a lead ridge, and it has coped stone skews with gableted skewputts. The gablehead and ridge stacks are coped and have octagonal cans, while cast-iron rainwater goods are also present.

The boundary walls consist of low coped granite walls made from Aberdeen bond, located to the north and east of the property.
