33 Nile Grove, Morningside, Edinburgh

33 Nile Grove is a terrace of six two-storey and attic houses built in 1883 by Anderson & Browne, featuring Queen Anne architectural details. The houses are constructed from cream sandstone, squared and snecked rubble with ashlar dressings, and stugged rubble on the rear and sides. Notable features include chamfered reveals, ashlar mullions, and architraved door surrounds.

The front elevation consists of three paired sections that mirror each other around a central axis. The entrance doors are located in the central bays, adorned with a pulvinated frieze and cornice, and topped with a rectangular fanlight featuring small leaded panes. The doors are distinctively panelled, leading into tiled vestibules. Above the entrance, there are single windows on the first floor. The outer bays have canted windows at the ground floor, which are complemented by blind balustraded parapets. Each house has two single windows on the first floor and a bipartite timber dormer with a segmental arched pediment, although No. 37 has been altered. The central pair of houses (Nos 33 and 35) features bipartite windows set within shaped gables and lugged pediments, with panelled aprons divided by vertical strips rising from the keystones of the first-floor windows.

The rear elevation includes two-storey brick service projections with catslide roofs and gabled stone dormers that have paired windows and apex stacks. The east elevation features a single-storey garage with a gabled bay to the left, which has a corniced apex stack and a single window on the first floor, along with a wallhead stack to the right that breaks the mansard roof. The west elevation has a gabled bay to the right with a corniced apex stack and a single window on the first floor, while the left side has a slightly advanced bipartite window at ground level and a corniced wallhead stack above.

The windows are timber sash and case, with eight-pane upper sashes and two-pane lower sashes. The roofs are covered with green slates and red ridge tiles, featuring a mansard roof at the rear with two apex and two wallhead stacks, along with corniced wallhead stacks and tall tapering cans. Scrolled skewputts and a moulded eaves gutter with ornamental cast-iron gutterheads complete the exterior.

The property is enclosed by tall rubble boundary walls with semi-circular coping at the rear and sides, and shouldered end piers topped with segmental-arched pediments. A low rubble wall with saddleback coping runs along the front, featuring later gates.
