Description

19 King's Crescent in Aberdeen is a building designed by Daniel MacAndrew in 1875, notable as a pioneer concrete terrace consisting of three houses. The structure features a near-symmetrical elevation facing King's Crescent, with two storeys and an attic. The exterior is made of concrete, rendered and lined to resemble ashlar stone, with suggested quoins.

The King's Crescent façade consists of five bays, with paired central doors that are topped by a linking consoled cornice. On either side of the doors are tripartite windows, and the outer bays contain canted windows. The first floor has three paired windows. The building is topped with bracketted eaves and a piended slate roof, which includes corniced ridge stacks. There is a recessed entrance bay on the left side for No 17.

On Jute Street, there is a similarly detailed door, along with one ground floor window and three first floor windows. Additionally, there is a lower rear extension and a concrete wall with granite copes and piers surrounding the property.
