2 Hamilton Place, Aberdeen

2 Hamilton Place in Aberdeen is a villa built in the later 19th century, featuring two stories and an attic with Scots Baronial detailing. The exterior is constructed from tooled Aberdeen bond granite, which is finely finished at the margins. Notable architectural elements include long and short quoins, an eaves course, and iron finials on the gablets and tower.

The south elevation is asymmetrical and has two bays. The entrance is located to the right on the ground floor, featuring a doorway with a segmental-arched hoodmould, a panelled timber door accessed by two stone steps, and a letterbox fanlight above. Above the entrance, there is a gableted window that breaks the eaves on the first floor. The left bay is blank, while an advanced flue runs through both the ground and first floors, also breaking the eaves, with a blind shield in the center. To the outer left, there is a circular-plan tower that extends through the ground and first floors, which has three windows on both levels and a conical slate roof.

The east elevation is also asymmetrical and consists of three bays. There are windows on the left and right sides of the ground floor, with a two-light stair window situated between the ground and first floors in the center. A window on the right breaks the eaves on the first floor, and there is a piend-roofed two-light dormer in the attic above.

The north elevation features a gabled bay on the left with a piend-roofed single-storey addition at the ground floor, while the bay on the right was not visible in 2000.

The west elevation is asymmetrical and includes the tower on the outer right side. The ground floor was not visible in 2000, but there is a piend-roofed window that breaks the eaves on the right of the first floor, along with a gableted window on the left that also breaks the eaves.

The villa predominantly features two-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is piended and covered with grey and purple-grey slate, complete with lead ridges. The gablehead and wallhead stacks are coped in granite and have octagonal and circular cans. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron.

The interior was not seen in 2000.

The property also includes gatepiers and boundary walls. There are two square-plan rough-faced granite gatepiers at the south, each topped with coped pyramidal caps. Low coped granite walls flank the gatepiers on the left and right, while brick-coped rubble walls are present to the east and west.
