Struan Hall, Ballater Road, Aboyne

Struan Hall is a late 19th-century, two-storey, four-bay house designed in a gabled cottage style. The exterior is made of finely finished, tooled, coursed granite with ladder snecking. It features bipartite windows and overhanging eaves.

The south elevation is asymmetrical, with a square entrance tower that projects from the penultimate bay on the left. This tower has windows on both the ground and first floors, and a panelled timber door with a letterbox fanlight is located on the right return, with another window above it on the first floor. To the outer left, there is a gabled bay with a rectangular five-light window spanning both floors and a plate glass door at the centre of the ground floor. The penultimate bay to the right has a tripartite window on the ground floor, and a geometric timber balcony between the ground and first floors. Above this, there is a gabled window and a window that breaks the eaves with a cat-slide roof on the first floor. The outer right bay features a canted window on the ground floor and a gabled window breaking the eaves on the first floor.

The east, west, and north elevations were not seen in 1998. The house has two-pane timber sash and case windows and a purple-grey slate roof with decorative terracotta ridges. The ridge and gablehead stacks are made of granite and have circular cans, while the rainwater goods are cast iron.

The interior was not seen in 1998. The property includes gates, gatepiers, timber railings, and boundary walls. There is a pebbled wall with rubble coping to the southwest, a low flat-coped wall with geometric timber railings to the south, and a coursed granite wall with ladder snecking and square-plan rough-faced gatepiers with semi-spherical caps to the southeast, along with decorative ironwork gates.
