Description
150 Monreith Road East, 148 in Glasgow is a 2-storey Arts and Crafts villa designed by Frederick Rowntree around 1906. The building has been subdivided into two dwellings and is predominantly finished in harled, painted white. It features a wide ashlar portico supported by short timber stylised Doric columns and has a dentilled cornice. The roof has steeply pitched gables, some with half-timber detailing, overhanging eaves, and irregularly placed windows.
On the north elevation, there is an off-centre portico with a catslide roof and a 5-light dormer above, flanked by irregular gables. To the far left, there is a single-storey, 2-bay section with a door and a garage set at right angles. The west elevation includes a modern conservatory addition on the ground floor to the left, and to the right, there are two small ashlar-dressed windows with stained glass panels, above which is a pair of bipartite windows situated between an advanced chimney.
The south elevation features a large advanced gabled section with a 6-light canted bay window on both the ground and first floors. To the right, a bay is partially obscured by a modern timber conservatory. The far right has another advanced gabled section and a recessed single bay section with a near-contemporary timber conservatory. The original casement windows remain in No 148, while No 150 has modern glazing. The roof is covered with modern tiles, and there is a wide timber 6-panel door on the north elevation, with small-paned leaded glass in the upper panels. The building has ashlar chimney stacks, including a gable stack on the west elevation and a pair of stacks halfway down the roof on the south side.
Inside, the villa is well-preserved and has been sympathetically subdivided, featuring a curved wall. In No 148, there is an original timber staircase and a timber panelled inglenook in the drawing room. No 150 contains some original timber cupboards with iron hinges and a glazed tile range surround in the kitchen. Part-glazed inset cupboards flank the fireplaces in the former dining and morning rooms, with the dining room cupboard featuring a painted timber overmantle.
The boundary wall to the south is a tall red brick wall with semicircular coping. To the north, there is a flat-coped, squared, and snecked tooled sandstone low wall that rises at the gate.
