Description
This building at 82 High Street, Leven, dates from 1903 and is a three-storey commercial property with residential spaces above, located on a corner site with a polygonal angle that rises to a tower. The exterior features stone-cleaned ashlar and harl at the rear, with cornices on each floor, moulded cill courses, and mutuled eaves at the tower. The edges are chamfered.
On the northeast elevation, there is a modern doorway in a chamfered bay at ground level, with tripartite windows above on each floor, and a glazed oculus over the central light that breaks the eaves into a finialled roof. The east elevation facing High Street has modern display windows at ground level and bipartite windows on each floor above. The northeast elevation mirrors the east elevation.
The northwest elevation has an asymmetrical design that has been altered at ground level, showcasing a variety of architectural elements, including a dated rainwater hopper. The building features plate glass glazing in timber sash and case windows, coped brick stacks with a full set of cans, ashlar-coped skews, and a cast-iron downpipe with a dated rainwater hopper on the northwest side.
