13 Lasswade Road, Dalkeith

15 Lasswade Road in Dalkeith is a pair of semi-detached houses built around 1909, designed in a 2-storey English vernacular style with Tudor details. The ground floor is constructed of red brick, while the first floor is harled, featuring some red sandstone dressings and painted cills.

The northern elevation facing Lasswade Road has M-gabled bays that are advanced towards the center, with canted entrance towers at the re-entrant angles. These entrance towers have piend roofs and feature timber canopied doors that are two-leaf with glazed upper panels, alongside margined side windows. The first floor has brickwork with a central window, while the ground floor boasts three-light windows in advanced panels. The first floor jetties out on sandstone corbels, with canted timber oriel windows and mock timber-framed gableheads. Tall, offset brick stacks rise from the ground in the outer bays.

The eastern elevation, which is No 13, and the western elevation, which is No 15 on Dundas Crescent, have jerkin-headed single bays. The ground floor features a canted window with a sandstone surround and a half-piend roof, while the first floor has a tripartite window.

The southern elevation includes a lower gabled brick service porch at the center, which has a blank round-arched panel. There is a door and flanking windows on the returns, with flat-roofed three-light dormer windows above. Each flanking bay has ground floor windows, and there is a modern greenhouse attached at the center to No 13. Stair windows with two-light designs flank each side, and additional windows break the eaves above the porch. No 15 is identical, except for a window at the center of the ground floor.

The houses feature sash and case windows with small-pane upper sashes and plate glass lower sashes. The stacks are corniced and panelled with moulded heads, and the eaves slightly overhang. The roofs are covered with grey-green slates and red ridge tiles, and there are finials on the entrance towers. The original rainwater goods are still in place.

The boundary walls are made of rubble with concrete semicircular coping, and there is a timber-framed garage to the northwest of No 15.
