James Dun's House, 61 Schoolhill, Aberdeen

James Dun's House, located at 61 Schoolhill in Aberdeen, is a possibly William Law-designed townhouse from 1769. This 5-bay, 2-storey building features a basement and attic, showcasing a symmetrical Classical style with lying-pane glazing. It is constructed from grey granite ashlar with mixed granite dressings and slightly raised margins. The central doorway is architraved, and the roof includes a smaller piended-roof dormer alongside a pair of larger, canted dormers. The building is set back from the street line, featuring a paved area and a low wall at the front, with cast-iron railings that include a central arch and lantern. The rear elevation has a shouldered attic gable flanked by canted dormers, and there is a later single-storey glass extension added to the rear.

The windows are timber sash and case with horns, and the roof is covered in grey slate with a stepped design. There is a broad stack on the right gable and ridge stacks elsewhere, along with coped ashlar skews and skewputs. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron.

Inside, the building was altered in 1994. It features a fine central curving staircase that connects all floors, with cast-iron banisters and a hardwood handrail. There is a stone stair leading to the basement, which has granite flagstones on the floor. Sections of the original building's corbelled-out wall are exposed within the glass extension at the rear.
