2 Danube Street, Stockbridge, Edinburgh

2 Danube Street is a prominent three-storey and basement, five-bay corner tenement built in 1824 by James Milne. It features a plain classical style with low and wide wallhead stacks, and the ground level falls away to the northeast, revealing the basement. The building is constructed of sandstone ashlar, with rustication at the ground floor. The entrance platts oversail the basement area recess that opens to the street. There is a banded base course, a banded cill course at the first floor, a corniced cill course at the second floor, and a corniced eaves course with a blocking course above. The doorways are inset, with timber doors and rectangular fanlights. The windows at the first floor have moulded architraves.

On the northwest (rear) elevation, the building features coursed rubble with droved ashlar rybats, lintels, and cills, and the fenestration is roughly regular. The predominant glazing pattern consists of twelve-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is double-pitched and covered with grey slates, featuring corniced ashlar wallhead stacks with large fielded panels, a corniced ashlar ridge stack, and some clay cans. There is cast iron railing edging the basement area recess and garden to the street, which incorporates a decorative lamp standard with a large bowl shade.

The interior, as seen in 2010, showcases a decorative classical scheme characterized by intricate plasterwork and large drawing rooms. Principal rooms feature decorative cornicing, some ceiling roses, and large marble fireplaces. There are working window shutters, along with some later subdivision of spaces.
