Description

Woodburn, located on Argyll Road in Kilcreggan, is a mid to late 19th century, two-storey, three-bay Italianate villa. The building features coursed ashlar with ashlar margins, and includes rusticated, rock-faced details, with some brick rendered to resemble ashlar. It has a rusticated, battered base course and a rusticated eaves course. The broad advanced eaves are supported by consoled brackets. The first-floor windows are segmental-headed with rusticated arch heads and keystones, while the ground floor has a deep cornice on moulded console brackets.

On the main elevation (south), there is a full-height bow on a battered base to the outer left, with three windows at ground level. The centre features tripartite windows on the first floor, with single windows to the right and left. A door to the right is accessed by ashlar steps with curving walls and a die, featuring a depressed-arched door with a cavetto-chamfered surround and a block keystone, topped by a heavy block pediment on consoles that abut directly against the bow. There is also a window above the door and a tripartite window at the first floor to the outer right.

The west elevation has a rendered and lined gable with a narrow window at the first floor left. There is a single-storey, flat-roofed bow at ground level to the centre left, with eaves that match the main house. A yellow brick downpipe screen infill (rendered) is present where it abuts the gable, along with three windows at ground level and a small window at the centre west.

The east elevation features a broad gable that is harled and lined, with a window at the first floor left. There is a lean-to conservatory at ground level in the centre and right, with a door at the centre ground.

The north elevation is three-bay with a painted glass stair window and symmetrical flanking windows, along with a half-pitched roof service block.

The villa has plate glass timber sash and case windows, including a four-pane sash and case window on the side bow. The roof is covered with grey slate and has coped sandstone stacks with octagonal cans.

The property is enclosed by a tall rubble and harled boundary wall topped with sea-quartz coping. The painted ashlar gatepiers feature main gates with a pedestrian gate to the left, and have a stugged base with a pier that has moulded arrises and depressed mushroom-headed caps. The gates are made of arrowheaded cast iron with a circle and cross frieze.
