Outseats House, 395 Hardgate, Aberdeen

Outseats House is a traditional L-plan house built around 1800, featuring two storeys and three bays. The exterior is constructed from random granite rubble with long and short dressings, and it includes long and short quoins, projecting cills, and a granite ashlar eaves course.

The south elevation is symmetrical, with a pilastered and pedimented timber porch that projects from the center bay of the ground floor. It has a modern timber door with a letterbox fanlight, flanked by windows on both sides. The first floor has regular fenestration with windows above the flanking bays.

The east elevation is asymmetrical, featuring a gabled bay to the left that is blank, and a wing that advances to the right, with the ground floor not visible due to alterations made in 1999. There are two windows on the first floor.

The north elevation is also asymmetrical, with a bay to the left that is not visible due to changes made in 1992. The gabled wing on the left has its ground floor obscured by modern garage additions, but it includes a timber door with a letterbox fanlight and two windows on the first floor of the right return.

The west elevation is asymmetrical with a gabled design and a single window off-center to the left on the ground floor. The house predominantly features replacement two-pane and twelve-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a terracotta ridge, with stone skews and simple skewputts. The gablehead stacks are made of granite and harling, topped with circular cans, and there are cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior has not been seen since 1999.

Additionally, there are square-plan granite ashlar gatepiers to the west of the house, which have pyramidal caps, and random rubble flat coped boundary walls to the north, east, and west.
