Description
1 East Fergus Place in Kirkcaldy is a later 19th-century villa that has been converted into offices. It features a three-bay, single-storey design with a raised basement, constructed from dressed ashlar and squared and snecked rubble, with ashlar dressings. The building includes decorative band courses, an eaves cornice, and a blocking course, as well as stone mullions.
The south elevation, facing Principal South Fergus Place, is symmetrical. Broad stone steps with decorative cast-iron railings lead up to a pedimented doorcase that is supported by fluted Doric columns. The entrance features a deep-set panelled timber door with a plate glass fanlight above. There are full-height, block-pedimented, canted tripartite windows in the flanking bays, which sit over canted basement bays that have windows providing light only to the center.
On the east elevation, facing East Fergus Place, there are three windows in the basement, a bipartite window in the center, and another window to the right at ground floor level. The west elevation has a window to the left of center and a lean-to outbuilding to the right in the basement, along with two windows to the left at ground level. The north elevation displays asymmetrical fenestration, including a basement door in the center and a window above.
The windows are timber sash and case, featuring 4-pane and plate glass glazing patterns. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are cavetto-coped ashlar wallhead stacks.
The interior, partly seen in 1996, includes decorative cornices and panelled soffits in the principal rooms. Additionally, there is a polygonal gazebo with blocked openings, topped with decorative grey slates and a cast-iron finial, along with coped rubble boundary walls surrounding the property.
