Academy House, School Road, Fordyce

Academy House, located on School Road in Fordyce, is a later 18th century house with 19th century additions and alterations. It is a 2-storey and attic structure featuring three bays, with later wings added to the east and west gables. The exterior is harled with contrasting painted margins, and the gabled ends and rear are constructed from rubble. The central entrance is obscured by a later 19th century single-storey square porch and is flanked by later bipartite windows. The first floor has narrow windows, and there are three piended wallhead dormers topped with decorative cast-iron finials. The east gable features a single-storey and attic, 2-bay wing, with upper windows that break the wallhead as gabled dormers. The west wing has been converted into a garage with a wide entrance and 2-pane glazing. The house has coped end stacks and a slate roof.

The property is enclosed by high rubble garden walls that surround both the house and the garden, including the East Wing.
