25 Falcon Gardens, Edinburgh

25 Falcon Gardens is a villa built around 1875, currently serving as offices for St Peter's primary school, which is listed separately. The building is two stories high with an attic and features three bays. It is constructed from grey sandstone, squared and snecked rubble, with polished ashlar dressings, bull-faced quoins, and additional dressings at the rear. The villa has a base course, a band course above the ground floor, and stop-chamfered reveals for its canted and bipartite windows. The ashlar mullions are complemented by ornately carved bargeboards with kingposts at the gables and dormers, along with overhanging eaves that show exposed rafters.

On the south (front) elevation, there is an advanced gabled bay to the left featuring a two-story canted window and a small window at the gablehead. The central doorway has stop-roll-moulded arrises and a bracketed cornice, leading to a two-leaf panelled door. Above this, there is a single window at the first floor with a gabled dormerhead that breaks the eaves. To the right, there is a bay with a bipartite window at the ground floor set in a shallow projecting ashlar panel, and a single window at the first floor, also with a gabled dormerhead breaking the eaves, alongside a small blank panel at the gablehead.

The north (rear) elevation features an M-gabled design with a single-storey addition on the left that has a half-piended roof, and an apex stack on the right gable. There are single windows at the first floor in the centre and small windows at the gableheads.

The east elevation has three bays, with a single and a bipartite window in the left bay, and single windows off-centre in the centre bay. A shouldered wallhead stack is located on the right.

The north elevation also has three bays, with a gabled bay to the left that includes a small window at the gablehead and a wallhead stack. There is a rectangular projection with a lean-to roof and a secondary doorway in the centre bay, along with a tall round-arched stair window featuring coloured glass above. The right bay has single windows.

The villa features timber sash and case windows, primarily with plate glass glazing, although some have 12 panes at the rear and sides. The roof is covered with green slate and red ridge tiles, and there are two wallhead stacks and two apex stacks. Moulded gutterheads are present at the front. Inside, the principal room on the first floor boasts ornate plasterwork cornice and a ceiling rose.
