22 Cammo Crescent, Queensferry Road, Edinburgh

22 Cammo Crescent is a house designed by P R McLaren around 1904. It is a two-storey, five-bay asymmetrical Free Style house featuring a full-height engaged tower to the right of the entrance, with later additions at the sides and rear. The exterior is finished in whitewashed harl with polished yellow sandstone dressings. Notable architectural details include a raised base course, an architraved cill course, and a moulded eaves course on the tower, along with timber bargeboards and overhanging eaves. The openings have chamfered surrounds, projecting cills, and the tower has corbelled first-floor windows.

On the north (entrance) elevation, there is an original two-leaf timber panelled door offset to the left of centre, topped by a plate glass fanlight, and a replacement opaque-glazed timber vestibule door. To the left of the entrance is a single keystoned oculus window at ground level, supported by flanking timber brackets that hold up an overhanging porch. Above the entrance, there is a single window at the first floor, centrally aligned in the gablehead. The outer left bay features bipartite windows on both floors. The engaged tower to the right of the entrance has a three-light canted window at ground level, which transitions to a three-light bowed window at the first floor, topped with a conical roof and a wind vane. There is a quadripartite window in a recessed bay to the outer right and single windows in both bays at the first floor.

The original block features six-pane upper and plate glass lower timber sash and case windows, while the side addition has four- and two-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is piended with red clay tiles, and the house retains its original decorative cast-iron rainwater goods. The harled ridge stacks to the east and west have sandstone coping and circular clay cans.

The interior was not seen in 1996. The boundary wall and gatepiers consist of a grey rubble sandstone wall with a coping along Queensferry Road, flanked by square-cut rubble piers that have painted pyramidal sandstone caps.
