Chapel House, Preshome

Chapel House in Preshome is a house built in 1830 by Bishop James Kyle and William Robertson. It is a symmetrical, two-storey, three-bay structure made of rubble with tooled ashlar dressings and margins. The central door is topped by a simple later wooden portico porch. The rear features regular three-bay fenestration, with two central stair windows that light the upper flights in the east gable, and the windows mainly have four-pane glazing. The house has coped end stacks and a slate roof, with a later single-storey lean-to added at the east gable.

Inside, there is a central entrance passage leading to a parlour on the left and a former dining room, now a sitting room, on the right. The parlour features a plain white marble chimneypiece, a simple ceiling cornice, and a painted ceiling rose with an armorial design within a foliated wreath, surrounded by a simple hexagonal painted border. The former dining room has a plain grey marble chimneypiece similar to that of the parlour and a simple ceiling cornice. On the first floor, there is a library and a former archive that retains its original shelving, pigeon holes, and cupboards.

Additionally, there is a later 18th-century garden store located to the west. This two-storey, two-bay structure, likely a former pavilion wing of an earlier house, is constructed of rubble with tooled rubble dressings. Access to the first floor is via a forestair at the north gable, while there is an off-centre entrance to the ground floor in the south gable. The garden store features nine-pane glazing, a central ridge stack, and a piended Banffshire slate roof.

The house and the adjoining church are enclosed by a coped rubble garden wall.
