35 Craigmore Road, Craigmore, Bute

35 Craigmore Road is a house built around 1850 and later converted into flats in the early 20th century, around 1903. It is a symmetrical, two-storey building with a basement and three bays, featuring classical details. The house has gabled eaves centered at the north, east, and south, with the east gable being more prominent. The exterior is constructed of droved coursed yellow sandstone, with polished yellow ashlar dressings. Notable features include a raised band course at the principal floor, an architraved string course, corbelled eaves, and large pilastered quoins. The ground floor windows are corbelled and corniced, while the first floor has shouldered surrounds and polished panels below the architraved cills. The north and south elevations are harled, with raised polished dressings and projecting cills.

On the east elevation, there is a cast-iron balustraded stair leading to a tripartite entrance at the ground floor, which serves the flat. The entrance features a part-glazed timber panelled door, opaque-glazed six-light sidelights, and a replacement fanlight. Above the entrance, corbelled brackets support a balcony adorned with a decorative cast-iron balustrade. At the first floor, a single window is set in a shouldered, round-arched surround at the apex, with additional single windows in recessed bays on both the left and right sides.

The south elevation has a timber panelled door at the ground floor, which serves the first-floor flat, along with a multi-paned fanlight and an advanced corniced doorpiece. A large stair window is centered above this door. There are single windows on both floors in the outer left and right bays, as well as a single basement window in the outer right bay.

The building features lying-pane glazing throughout and is topped with a graded grey slate piend roof. The rainwater goods have been replaced, and there are corniced apex stacks at both the north and south ends, although the cans are missing.

The interior was not seen in 1996. The boundary walls and gatepiers consist of a round-arched rubble coping to a harl-pointed rubble wall along Craigmore Road, with a curved droved yellow ashlar wall flanking the entrance. The gatepiers are chamfered, square-plan yellow ashlar with pyramidal caps, and there are replacement cast-iron vehicular access gates.
