17-19 Osborne Court, Cockenzie

17-19 Osborne Court in Cockenzie is a 2-storey, irregular 3-bay house built in 1869, designed in the Scots Baronial style. The exterior is made of squared and snecked cream sandstone rubble, with dressings that are stugged, droved, and chamfered. It features a cornice base course and a hoodmould/string course.

The front elevation has an advanced and canted southmost bay on the right, which includes a corbelled crowstepped gablehead and a tripartite bay window on the ground floor that is foreshortened on the first floor, along with a small window in the gablehead. The central entrance is a 6-panel door with a plain fanlight and a plaque above it, with a first-floor window that breaks the eaves in a semicircular dormerhead. To the left, there is a ground floor window that is also foreshortened on the first floor and breaks the eaves in a crowstepped dormerhead. The northwest corner features a chamfered section with a corbelled and moulded pepperpot tower, which has three narrow windows, a conical roof, and a finial. Additionally, there are three unusual narrow timber dormers in the roofspace, which are moulded and gabled.

The rear elevation is a 3-bay design, with the centre bay advanced in a rounded stair tower, which is a modern addition that incorporates some earlier features. This section is harled and includes a door, a central stair window, and a corbelled crowstepped gablehead. The flanking bays have crowstepped gables, with symmetrical windows on the first floor and narrow gablehead windows, while the ground floor window is only present in the northern bay.

The south elevation is asymmetrical with three ground floor windows, topped by a string course on the westmost window only. The outer bays have two windows on the first floor. The north elevation features a single window on the ground floor and a first-floor window to the east that breaks the eaves in a crowstepped dormerhead.

Most of the windows are timber sash and case with plate glass, although some have been replaced recently and include horns and vents. The roof has crowstepped gables covered in graded grey Scotch slates, with two large gable stacks on the west and south sides, and a plain cope with cans removed.
