126, 128, 130, and 134 Marchmont Road in Edinburgh is a four-storey corner tenement built around 1800, designed in the Scottish 17th century style, with shops on the ground floor. The building is constructed from squared and snecked sandstone, featuring contrasting polished ashlar dressings. It has a base course, a cornice above the shopfronts, and string courses above the first and second floors.
The elevation facing Marchmont Road has altered shopfronts and a main door at ground level, with a chamfered angle that includes a doorway to the outer right. Above the shopfronts, there are five bays. The outer left bay features a full-height two-light canted window topped with a facetted pyramidal roof and a decorative cast-iron finial. The second and third bays contain bipartite windows, while the third dormer heads have stone finials.

The angle bay to the outer right also has a full-height canted window with a facetted pyramidal roof and a decorative cast-iron finial.
