Description

Two-storey two-bay semi-detached villas designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 1890 for his cousin James Hamilton. Built of stugged and snecked coarse red ashlar sandstone with polished dressings. Symmetrically arranged, each has a large canted and piended outer bay with both single and mullioned window openings with cross-mullion windows in canted bays at the ground floor level. The villas originally had small-paned upper sashes with the lower sashes mostly two-paned. The house nearest the south (No.140) has leaded upper panels.

The slate roof is swept-down between over two lower, close-spaced narrow bays with bracketed eaves and chimneystacks. There is an architraved door on either flank.

The pair are set back from the pavement behind a low boundary wall with wrought iron gates and railings with curved longitudinal rails (not original). There is a pair of gatepiers at the south.
