The Red House, 46 Rubislaw Den North, Aberdeen

The Red House, located at 46 Rubislaw Den North in Aberdeen, is a villa designed by R Leslie Roll and D Poulson Hall, built between 1936 and 1938. This two-storey, three-bay structure is made of rough-faced pink granite, which is finely finished at the edges. It features a rubble base course, overhanging eaves, and shallow catslide roofs above the first-floor windows.

The principal elevation is asymmetrical, showcasing tripartite windows on both the ground and first floors of the central bay. To the left, there is a six-light rectangular window that protrudes on the ground floor, with a glazed door to the right. Above this, a tripartite window is situated on the first floor. To the right, a gabled bay contains a six-light shallow bowed window on the ground floor and a tripartite window above, topped with a half-timbered gablehead.

The east elevation features a gabled design with the roof sloping down to the ground floor on the right side. It includes stone steps with a retaining wall at the ground floor, and a broad shallow piend-roofed porch that extends forward. The porch has an inward-canted doorway set in a deeply chamfered segmental arch, with a two-leaf boarded timber door flanked by glazed panels. There is also a window to the left, a chamfered outer left angle with a small window in the center, and a window centered on the first floor.

The north and west elevations were not visible in 2000. The villa predominantly features timber casement windows with top hoppers and rectangular leaded details. The piended rosemary slate roof has terracotta ridges and slopes down to the north, with wallhead, gablehead, and ridge stacks that have circular cans. The property also includes cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior was not seen in 2000. Additionally, there is a cyclopean granite boundary wall to the south of the property.
