Description

30 Kinghorn Road in Burntisland is a late 19th-century, two-storey terrace consisting of three symmetrical houses. The exterior features polished ashlar stone, squared and snecked rubble, and droved quoins on the sides and rear. It has stone cills, a chamfered base course, a band and eaves course, chamfered arrises, and stone mullions.

The south elevation is symmetrical, with a slightly advanced pedimented central bay that has tripartite windows on both floors. Flanking the center are two deep-set fanlit doors, with windows above, where the inner door serves as a pend entrance. The outer bays are slightly advanced and gabled, featuring full-height canted corniced windows topped with finials.

The north elevation has T-projections to the left and right of the center, with windows and doors on both floors that provide access to outhouses at the ground level and a raised garden.

The east elevation has an M-gable. The building has modern plate glass glazing throughout, some of which include top-opening windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are cavetto coped ashlar stacks with polygonal cans, as well as ashlar coped skews and bracketed skewputts.

Inside, number 33 features a quarter-turn staircase with decorative cast-iron balusters and a wooden handrail, illuminated by a top-lit oval roof-light with radial astragals. The interior also includes elaborate cornicing, center roses, a large pilastered timber fire-surround, and a dado-rail at the first-floor landing.

The property includes slated pitch-roofed rubble outbuildings that stretch across the rear and possibly clasp the northeast corner. There is a low saddleback-coped coursed rubble boundary wall to the south, with high coped rubble walls to the east and west, featuring ashlar coping and decorative cast-iron railings to the north.
