14 Ettrick Road, Edinburgh

14 Ettrick Road is a two-storey, three-bay villa built in 1893 by J R & E E Pearson, featuring a lower two-storey side wing to the southwest. The exterior is constructed from cream sandstone, with squared and snecked rubble and polished dressings. It has a base course, a moulded string course above the ground floor, and an ashlar parapet that serves as an apron to the first-floor windows. The building also includes a cill course to the first-floor windows, an eaves cornice, architraved windows, ashlar mullions, and scroll-flanked shouldered and corniced wallhead stacks.

On the northeast (front) elevation, there is a central round-arched tripartite doorpiece, which is divided by slender red marble columns that support carved consoles. This features a two-leaf panelled door and a semi-circular plate glass fanlight above. A single window is located at the first floor above the door. To the right, there is a bay with a full-height canted ashlar window topped with a half-piend roof. The left bay has a full-height shallow ashlar projection with bipartite windows on both the ground and first floors. A single bay service wing is situated to the outer left, featuring a bipartite window at the ground floor and a first-floor window that breaks the eaves in a pedimented gablehead.

The northwest (Polwarth Terrace) elevation has a full-height canted window with a half-piend roof in the right bay, with single windows in the centre and left bays. There is a wallhead stack to the left.

On the southwest (rear) elevation, there is an advanced central bay with a half-piend roof and a lower two-storey service wing to the right, which includes dormer windows. A wallhead stack is located to the left.

The southeast elevation features the side wing with a secondary door flanked by single windows, and a first-floor window that breaks the eaves in a gabled dormerhead. There are two wallhead stacks on the main block.

The villa has timber sash and case windows with plate glass glazing, a slate piend and platform bellcast roof with lead flashings, and four wallhead stacks with octagonal cans. It also includes a moulded eaves gutter and gutterheads.

The interior was not seen in 1992. The property is enclosed by a tall rubble wall to the rear and sides, with semi-circular coping, and a low wall to the front with saddleback coping and later gates.
