3, 4 Glenfinlas Street, Edinburgh

3 and 4 Glenfinlas Street in Edinburgh is a classical terrace building designed by James Gillespie Graham in 1822. It is three stories high with a basement and features twelve bays. The exterior is made of polished ashlar sandstone, with V-jointed rustication on the principal floor. There is a base course, a band course between the basement and the principal floor, and a cill course at the first and second floors. The entrance has ashlar steps and platts that extend over the basement.

The east elevation has twelve bays, with six bays on the left that are advanced, comprising a mirrored pair of three-bay houses. These have panelled timber doors and rectilinear rectangular fanlights. On the right, there are six bays stepped down, also comprising a mirrored pair of three-bay houses, featuring panelled timber doors and rectangular fanlights, with plate glass at No 19 and rectilinear glass at No 11. The windows in the remaining bays on the principal floor have regular fenestration above, with architraved and corniced windows at the first floor and architraved windows at the second floor. An additional floor has been added at the attic of No 10. There is a flagged basement area.

The north elevation consists of six bays, which includes the two-bay east elevation and a four-bay northeast return that connects to 13-14 Glenfinlas Street, which is listed separately. The south elevation is adjacent to a modern terrace that matches the style of the original building. The rear elevation has not been seen since 1998.

The building features a variety of timber sash and case windows, a grey slate M-roof, and cast-iron rainwater goods. The ridge stacks are made of broached ashlar, with some being coped and others having cornices, along with circular cans.

The interiors have not been seen since 1998. The property is also adorned with ashlar copes topped with cast iron railings that have spear-headed balusters and finials. There are cast-iron lamps mounted on the railings, featuring glass globes.
