12 Chapel Street, Dunfermline

12 Chapel Street in Dunfermline is a former manse built in the late 18th to early 19th century, with later additions and alterations. The building is two stories high with an attic and has a three-bay, originally rectangular plan. It is detached with a symmetrical principal elevation facing south, featuring bow-fronted dormers and scrolled skewputts. The principal elevation is made of coursed droved sandstone, while other sides are rendered, with droved ashlar dressings. There is an eaves band with a moulded cornice on the principal elevation, and the ground and first-floor openings are architraved with vertical margins at the arrises. The skews are coped.

On the south elevation, steps lead up to a central entrance that has a late 20th-century part-glazed timber door with a rectangular fanlight above. There are flanking windows on each floor and one above. The northeast elevation features a piended-roofed extension that projects to the left, with late 20th-century openings on the ground and first floors. To the right, there is a blank wall set back from the original block. The west elevation is blank. The northeast elevation also has a single-storey extension that projects to the center, with a blank wall set back from the original block.

The building has late 20th-century replacement UPVC windows throughout and a grey slate roof. There are slightly lowered rendered stacks on either side of the original block (east and west), although the cans are missing. The interior was not inspected in 1998.
