Description

Lismhor, located at 11 Easter Belmont Road in Edinburgh, is a B-listed building designed by Kininmonth & Spence in 1932 and later extended by Morris & Steedman. This International Modern flat-roofed villa features a single and two-storey design with an irregular plan, situated on a sloping site and constructed from rendered brick.

The north elevation, which serves as the entrance, has steps leading up through terracing to a splayed doorway with a reinforced concrete canopy. It features two-leaf panelled doors, a corner window to the right, and strip windows on the first floor above. There is also a single-storey window adjacent to the right and a single-storey wing with a double garage, originally a single garage, that is set back to the left.

On the south elevation, which faces the garden, the central two-storey block is flanked by single-storey wings. The centre block has an 11-light vertical-paned bowed window, which was originally French windows with strips of lying-pane windows that have been recently enlarged to match the size of the French windows, with the astragals removed. A parapet with a handrail forms a balcony on the first floor, and there is a semi-circular concrete canopy over the first-floor windows. The centre block also features corner windows on both the ground and first floors, while the left wing has three windows, including a corner window. Steps lead up to a secondary entrance at a recessed wing to the right. The original Crittall steel windows have been replaced with uPVC double glazing that follows the original pattern, and the ground floor windows are set in slightly recessed panels.

The interior was not seen in 2001.
