60 Hamilton Place, Aberdeen

60 Hamilton Place is a villa from the late 19th century, possibly designed by John Rust. It features two storeys and an attic, showcasing Scots Baronial architectural details. The principal elevation is constructed from tooled coursed grey granite, while the rest of the building is made of granite rubble, with finely finished margins and a base course, as well as chamfered cills.

The southeast elevation is asymmetrical, with a segmental-arched doorway on the left side of the ground floor. This doorway has a roll-moulded lintel and a hoodmould with scrolled label stops, leading to a panelled timber door with a fanlight. There is a small window flanking the outer left and a window above on the first floor with a chamfered lintel. The gableted attic floor breaks the eaves and features a small window in the centre of the gablehead, along with crowstepped gables and a stone finial at the apex. An angle turret is located on the outer left, corbelled out at the first floor with a single window at the centre and a conical roof topped with a lead finial. On the outer right, there is a gabled bay with a three-light canted window spanning the ground and first floors, creating a balcony at the attic level. The attic floor also has a two-light Tudor-arched window and an arrowslit opening set in the gablehead, topped with a decorative iron weathervane.

The northeast elevation is gabled and features a buttress on the outer left and a window in the centre. The northwest elevation is asymmetrical and has two bays, with a piend-roofed single-storey addition advanced to the right of the ground floor. The left bay was not visible in 2000. There are two piend-roofed windows on the first floor that break the eaves, along with a canted dormer on the left side of the attic floor and a four-light rectangular dormer on the right.

The southwest elevation is also asymmetrical and gabled, featuring a panelled timber door to the right of the ground floor and a bipartite window to the left. Between the ground and first floors, there is a bipartite stair window with a fine stained glass centre, and a bipartite window is set in the gablehead.

The building predominantly has modern two-pane timber-framed windows, a grey slate roof with a lead ridge, stone skews that are coped in places, and coped gablehead stacks with octagonal cans. It also features cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior was not seen in 2000. The boundary walls consist of low coped granite walls to the southeast, topped with hooped railings, and the wall steps up to the west.
