Description
1 Kilgraston Road in Edinburgh is a villa possibly designed by Robert Morham around 1872. It is a two-storey, three-bay building with a near square plan and features a two-storey, four-bay extension added after 1877. The exterior is constructed from squared and snecked sandstone with polished ashlar dressings. Notable architectural details include base and dividing band courses, trefoil-headed windows at the ground floor, cross-mullions, chamfered reveals, and long and short quoins.
The west elevation facing Kilgraston Road has a pointed-arched doorway with deeply chamfered jambs and an architraved head, leading to a tripartite panelled door and a plate glass fanlight. Above this, there is a bipartite window at the first floor. To the outer right, a full-height four-light canted window is set in a gable bay with a finial. The elevation features a dividing cornice and segmental-arched windows at the first floor, topped with a cornice and a fishscale half-piend roof. The outer left bay has bipartite windows, with the first-floor window breaking the eaves in a piend-roofed dormer head. The four-bay extension, which is nearly contemporary, has bipartite windows in each bay.
The south elevation is three-bay with a central doorway flanked by narrow sidelights. There is a single window in the attic that breaks the eaves in a pedimented dormer head. The outer left bay has tripartite windows, while the outer right bay features single windows, with one in the attic also breaking the eaves in a pedimented dormer head.
The villa has plate glass sash and case windows, a grey slate pitched roof, coped gable heads, ridge stacks, moulded cans, moulded eaves guttering coping, and scrolled skewputts. The interiors were not seen in 1990. There is a low coped stone boundary wall along the street with simple replacement railings and a brick mutual wall.
