Description

Craigholm is an early 19th-century, two-storey house with an attic, featuring a three-bay design in a classical terrace style. The building is constructed of dressed ashlar stone and includes rusticated quoins, a base course, a band course, an eaves cornice, and a blocking course. The windows are architraved.

On the south elevation, there is a Greek Doric columned doorpiece with an entablature at the center, which includes a deep-set panelled door with a letterbox fanlight above it. There is a window above the door, with additional windows to the left on both floors and a full-height canted window to the right. The roof features a 19th-century rooflight and canted piend-roofed dormers with finials in the flanking bays.

The windows are fitted with plate glass glazing in sash and case style. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are coped ashlar stacks with cans, as well as ashlar coped skews topped with cast-iron finials.

The property is enclosed by boundary walls, including a low saddleback coped wall to the south and coped rubble walls to the north, east, and west.
