Baldovie House, Dundee

Baldovie House is a two-storey, L-plan house dating to 1734, with an entrance tower added in 1898 and further modern additions to the north and west. The house is constructed of harled rubble with a grey slate roof. It has plate glass sash and case windows, coped skews at the crowstepped gables at the east and west, and coped gable stacks.

The east elevation features a two-storey entrance tower set into the re-entrant angle. The tower has a two-leaf door with a moulded doorcase, a date panel at the first floor, and a finialled bartizan. There are two sets of paired windows to the right return at ground floor, and paired and bipartite windows at first floor. A bay is recessed to the right with windows at ground and first floors, while a bay is advanced to the left with a single window at ground floor right.

On the south elevation, lowered bipartite windows are present to the right, accompanied by a band course at the first floor and eaves course. Two windows are visible at ground and first floors to the left (one ground floor window being very small), with a single window at ground floor far left (the other two being blocked), paired with a tripartite window at first floor. The wall corbels to a gable at the wallhead with a heraldic panel and finial; decayed paired heraldic motifs are visible at the skewputts. The heraldic panel on the south elevation displays the words "God give grace".

The north and west gables have their ground floors largely masked by modern additions, with a single window at first floor right on each elevation.

The interior includes a panelled entrance porch, a newel staircase with barley-sugar cast-iron balusters, and a coomb ceiling at first floor level. An inscription reading "1734. RSH" is found on the west wall of the southwest corner ground floor room, referring to Richard Holden, an Irishman who made improvements to linen processing and to whom Baldovie was feued in that year. A rubble boundary wall runs along the south and east sides of the property. An ice house is located adjacent to the east boundary wall. Baldovie House is currently used as the Michelin Athletic Club.
