Description

Station House, located on Station Road in Garelochhead, is a 2-storey, asymmetrical gabled cottage designed by Robert Wemyss in 1894. The building has a rectangular plan and is constructed on sloping ground to the west. It features a rubble exterior with harl pointing and red sandstone dressings and margins. The structure includes quoins and a slightly battered base course, with projecting eaves and exposed painted rafters.

On the west elevation, there are three asymmetrical bays. The outer left bay is advanced, with an entrance located at the re-entrant angle immediately to the right. The outer right bay also projects, featuring a broad chimney breast that is slightly advanced and has a datestone marked 1894. The entrance door is sheltered by a lean-to timber canopy porch supported on a sandstone corbel. To the right of the door is a narrow window, and there is a small bipartite window at the center directly under the eaves. The outer left bay has a bipartite window at the ground level and a bipartite, piended dormer head that breaks the eaves at the attic level.

The south elevation displays a gable with a timber bargeboard. There is a bipartite window at the ground level, with a smaller window to the right, and another bipartite window at the center of the gablehead. The windows include 4-pane over plate glass casements, and the center attic window features a 6-pane casement. The roof is covered with grey slate and has lead flashings.

Additionally, there is a low rubble terraced wall with harl pointing and red sandstone slab coping surrounding the property. Simple cast-iron railings and gateposts complement the terrace and retaining wall.
