Description

Netherton Of Craigie is a villa located on Craigiebarn Road in Dundee, designed by William Careless in 1911. This single-storey and double-attic floor building features an irregular plan and is constructed in the Arts and Crafts style, with harled brick and a grey-green slate roof. It has a rubble base course and multi-pane timber casement windows, most of which have brick cills. The roof is steeply pitched with deep eaves, and there are stacks with deep, moulded brick coping.

On the south elevation, there is an entrance door with an adjoining window under a porch to the right, and a broad three-bay gable that is interrupted at the eaves line to the right by a clasping piended roof, which extends from the main roof and forms the porch. To the left, there are two windows and a four-light window at the far left. The first floor features a Venetian-type window in the center, a bipartite window to the left, and paired bipartite windows at the second floor, with a band course above and at the roof space. To the right, there is a single-storey and attic bay under a sweeping roof, which includes a canted window with a piended-roof dormer above, and an open porch to the left with a cut-away angle and facetted roof.

The east gable has a small window at the center and one to the right, with two windows at the first floor and one at the second floor. A tall stack is located at the left, skewed with a gablet base at the left return.

On the north elevation, there is a door at the left re-entrant with a flat-roofed angle canopy. The advanced main gable is on the right, with a lean-to on the left, two four-light windows at the center, and a door to the right. There are two bipartite windows at the first floor and two single windows at the second, with a band course at both the second and attic floor levels.

The west elevation is symmetrical, featuring three windows at the ground floor and three in a wide swept dormer above, along with a ridge stack.

Inside, most original features remain intact, including a central hall with an unusual arrangement of steps and a flanking balustrade, and an inglenook in the dining room. Additionally, there is a concave rubble wall in the garden.
