Description
Glenwood House is an earlier 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay classical house with a rectangular plan and piend and platform roofs, located on Glenwood Road in Leslie. The building features Aberdeen bond, squared whinstone rubble, and squared and snecked rubble with contrasting sandstone dressings and quoins. It has a base course and a cavetto eaves cornice. The east elevation includes a round-headed window with voussoirs, while the ground floor on the west elevation has architraved surrounds, chamfered arrises, and stone mullions.
On the principal (west) elevation, there is a corniced and pilastered doorcase with a deep-set panelled timber door and a three-pane fanlight at the centre. Flanking bays feature corniced and bracketed tripartite windows, all with blocking courses, and the first floor has regular fenestration. The south elevation has a part-glazed door located off-centre to the right, behind a small traditional conservatory. There are windows in the outer right bay at ground level and in the outer right and left bays on the first floor, along with a broad, shouldered wallhead stack at the centre.
The east elevation showcases a decorative-astragalled stair window with a small adjacent window to the right over the flat roof of a small extension, and another window in the right bay at ground level. The north elevation features a small window to the left of a single-storey lean-to extension, with coped screen walls to the east and west, each having a window on the return. There is a small lean-to porch on the return to the east, and steps lead down to a basement door at the outer right. The first floor has windows to the outer right and left, and there is a broad, shouldered wallhead stack at the centre.
The house has small-pane glazing patterns in timber sash and case windows, including a margined, decorative-astragalled, round-headed stair window. The roof is covered with graded grey slates, and the coped ashlar stacks have polygonal cans.
The interior was not seen in 1996.
There are outbuildings, including a slated, piend-roofed whinstone rubble structure, possibly a coach house, featuring a two-leaf timber door on the west and a 14-pane glazing pattern in a fixed window on the south. Another outbuilding is located abutting the boundary wall near the southeast corner of the house.
The boundary walls are made of coped rubble, with pyramidal-coped ashlar gatepiers and decorative cast-iron gates.
