Description
10A Greenhill Park in Edinburgh is a Functionalist house designed by Alexander Esme Gordon in 1966. It is a single and two-storey building, roughly in an L-shape, with a double garage connected to the northwest. The property features a partially enclosed paved courtyard with a pond to the west and a wall with a circular opening to the southwest. The construction consists of cavity walls with cement render that incorporates white marble and limestone, along with a pink cement rendered basecourse and simulated snecked stonework. The windows in the public rooms are set in slate frames, and there is a projecting, concave, bullfaced sandstone entrance screen to the north, featuring two-leaf panelled doors in a slate recess.
The north elevation, which serves as the entrance, includes a two-storey section with an entrance and bedroom wing, along with a projecting porch located off-centre to the left. The double garage is linked to the far right. The south elevation, facing the garden, has a circular opening in the wall that extends beyond the main building line to the far left. The west elevation, which opens to the courtyard, features large square windows framed in slate, a porch with pink cement rendered imitation stonework to the southwest, and a square plan concrete pier connecting to the garage. There is also a square plan plinth in front of a column.
Inside, the original layout remains mostly intact. A wide staircase leads off the main entrance and has a continuous wooden handrail, with a top-lit recess at the southern end of the hall. The kitchen retains original Formica units, while the dining room has a sideboard recess with Hessian backing and a wooden canopy. The living room features built-in hardwood shelving below the windows and figured wood built-in wardrobes in the master bedroom. Some original stainless steel door furniture and bespoke bathroom basin units with an angled counter and recessed mirror are also present, along with some original light fittings. The windows are predominantly large rectangular and square shapes with top hoppers, although the lower sections have mostly been replaced with uPVC. The shallow pitched roofs are clad in folded aluminium sheets, and there is an advanced, large rendered and coped chimney stack on the west elevation.
The garage is a single-storey rendered structure, and it includes wrought iron and mild steel, two-leaf gates that were originally from 11 Greenhill Park. There is also a fluted Ionic column in the turning space.
