Description

41 High Street in Aberdour is a late 17th or early 18th century, two-storey, three-bay rectangular-plan house with single-storey outshots at the rear. The exterior features rendered walls with painted stone margins around the openings, an architrave on the door, and a moulded eaves course.

The northwest elevation is symmetrical, showcasing a central moulded and lugged doorpiece flanked by windows, with three first-floor windows positioned above the openings below, close to the eaves. The northeast elevation has a plain gable wall that shows raggles from a former adjoining house. On the southeast elevation, there is a central ground floor window, with single-storey outshots on both sides that include modern additions. The left outshot retains an original chamfered, moulded stone door surround. The first-floor fenestration is irregular, featuring a small original window on the far left, a window in the center, and a large window on the far right.

The southwest elevation is attached to 43-51 High Street. The ground floor has a timber panelled door and 4-pane timber sash and case windows, while the first floor has 12-pane timber sash and case windows and a small centered dormer window on the southeast side. The roof is pitched and covered with modern interlocking tiles, and there are coped, rendered gable apex stacks with circular clay cans.

Inside, the ground floor has been modernized. The first-floor bedroom on the northeast side features a late 19th-century timber mantelpiece, flanking presses (with the left door missing), and a coomed ceiling with a plain cornice.
