Description
9 Bellevue Place in Edinburgh is a classical terrace built in 1890 by John Chesser. It consists of two stories and nine bays, forming a curved corner that is continuous in design with Bellevue Place and East Claremont Street. The building is constructed from sandstone ashlar and features architraved margins, with No. 7 painted. It has a base course, bracketed cills at the ground floor, a cill band at the first floor, an eaves cornice, and a blocking course. The windows are tall and narrowly proportioned, with those on the first floor being taller and aproned.
On the principal elevation, there are timber panelled doors with multi-pane fanlights in architraved entrances located in bays 2, 5, and 8. The remaining bays feature regular fenestration above, and there are two segmental-arched dormers on No. 7. The windows are timber sash and case with plate glass glazing. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are ashlar ridge stacks with terracotta cans, along with skews and non-continuous cast-iron railings.
The interior was not seen in 1998. The site is enclosed by low coped ashlar boundary walls.
