Description

9 Lowther Terrace in Glasgow is a mid-terrace house designed by architect Sydney Mitchell between 1904 and 1906, showcasing Scots Renaissance style. This four-bay house stands three storeys tall and features a polished stonecleaned ashlar exterior.

The outer bays at the ground and first floors have canted windows, which are connected at the first floor by a continuous projecting solid ashlar balcony that serves as a porch for the recessed off-centre doorway, which has a modern door. To the left, there are four-light windows with mullion and/or transom details. The second floor features large dormer heads in a Jacobean style, complete with moulded pediments that break the wallhead and roll-moulded architraves. The house has sash windows with small pane glazing.

Above the first floor, there is a frieze adorned with carved panels and a datestone from 1904. An elaborate shell frieze is located below the eaves cornice. The house is topped with tall coped stacks that have rounded angles, shared with neighbouring houses. The roofs are slate, and the rear is constructed of coursed stugged ashlar. Additionally, there is a dated rainwater head.
