Description

39, 41, and 43 Warrender Park Road is a four-storey corner tenement building dated 1881, situated on a sloping site and featuring Scots Baronial architectural details. The ground floor includes shops, and the building is constructed from squared and snecked pink sandstone with contrasting polished dressings. Notable features include a cornice above the shopfronts, a corbel table at the third floor, and machicolated hoods over the second-floor windows in the bays flanking the corner, along with a string course at the third floor.

The south elevation on Warrender Park Road has five bays, including an angle bay. The ground floor features plate glass shopfronts with painted stonework, and there is a pedimented doorway at the angle. Above the shops, there is a three-storey canted window that is corbelled to a square at the crowstepped gablehead, which also has a pedimented blind window set in it. The gablehead is adorned with crowsteps and skewputts. The first floor has an advanced and canopied bipartite window in the third bay, with bipartite windows above it and a semi-circular pediment. The first bay features bipartite windows, and there is a crowstepped pediment linked to a wallhead stack. Advanced single windows are found at the first floor in the second and fourth bays, with single windows above and pediments over the third-floor windows. A pedimented cipher panel (GM) is located at the first floor between the fourth and angle bays.

The east elevation on Marchmont Road also has five bays. The shopfronts step down from left to right due to the sloping site, with the main door located at the centre, featuring a panelled door and a plate glass fanlight. There is a two-light angled bay above the shops on the outer right, topped with a facetted pyramidal roof and an iron finial. The first bay has bipartite windows, and a crowstepped gable with a corbelled stack is positioned above. The third bay contains bipartite windows on both the first and second floors, with a semi-circular pediment above a single window at the third floor. The remaining bays feature single windows with pediments over the third-floor windows. A pedimented date panel indicating the year 1881 is located between the angle and first bays. The building has plate glass sash and case windows, a grey slate roof, and corniced wallhead stacks to the south and east, along with coped mutual stacks.

The interior was not seen in 1991.
