Prospect Bank House, 16 Prospect Bank Road, Edinburgh

Prospect Bank House is a mid-18th century, two-storey and basement, five-bay house that has later single-storey pavilions added around 1820. The building is constructed of brick and is now harled.

The southeast elevation features a symmetrical main block with an architraved doorpiece at the center, which includes a two-leaf panelled door and a cast-iron railed forestair. The fenestration is regular, with a blind window in the outer left bay at the basement level and a blank wall on the left pavilion.

The northwest elevation is nearly symmetrical and has an exposed basement. There is a single-storey, flat-roofed extension to the second and third bays of the main block, along with a window in the outer right bay. The right wing has a door and window at the basement level, and the central ground floor window features a shallow segmental-arched lintel. A small square skylight is located over the center bay.

The southwest elevation has a single central window, while the northeast elevation was not visible in 1995.

All openings have 12-pane timber sash and case windows. The main block has a brown concrete pantile pitched roof, with a half-piended roof on the wing. The wallhead stacks and skews are harled and coped.

The interior was not seen in 1995. The boundary wall consists of a brick dwarf wall with ashlar coping, and there are cast-iron arrowhead railings along the street.
