Description

Flichity House is a large, asymmetrical baronial house that was largely remodeled by William Macbeth of Ross and Macbeth in Inverness in 1907. The house primarily consists of two storeys with an attic in the eastern wing, while the tower features four storeys with a caphouse formed by a corbelled angle turret that rises to a fifth floor. The building is constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings, except for part of the eastern wing, which is harled.

The tower has an entrance on the south side, adorned with a decorative doorpiece and scrolled pediments, and an oculus on the south face. The turret is corbelled above ground level and transitions to a square shape at the third floor, topped with a crowstepped caphouse. The tower displays a variety of windows, a crenellated parapet with large gargoyles, and three crowstepped gabled bays on the first floor. The first bay features a large neo-perpendicular four-light mullion and transom window with four small lights below a broad lower mullion. The second bay contains stained glass, while the third bay, added around 1907, has a decorative door and a full-height circular angle turret wing to the southeast. The first bay is rubble, while the remaining elevations are harled, and there are three wall-head pedimented dormers. All windows have 1907 glazing, with plate glass in the lower sashes and multi-pane upper sashes. The roofs are slate with coped stacks.
