Description
9 Seafield Place in Cullen is a substantial villa built around 1835, likely by William Robertson, with later additions and alterations from the 19th century. The building is two stories tall and has a rectangular plan with three bays, along with a later single-storey, three-bay wing at the rear. A former outhouse to the southwest has been extended to connect with the house. The exterior features harl pointed rubble, with harling on the northeast and rear elevations, and has tooled and polished ashlar margins and dressings, as well as rusticated long and short quoins. There is a base course, a band course at the ground floor, and an eaves course.
The central entrance has a pilastered and corniced doorpiece with a six-panel timber door and a rectangular geometric fanlight above. The slightly recessed center bay on the first floor has polished ashlar facing. To the left on the ground floor, there is a bracketted, corniced, and aproned window, while to the right, there is a late 19th-century advanced three-light pilastered bay. The first-floor windows in the flanking bays have moulded and lugged architraves with triangular pediments decorated with anthemion and cartouche motifs, and aprons. The side elevation's first-floor windows are mostly blind. The rear features later canted dormers. The former outhouse has a central entrance facing Reidhaven Street, flanked by bipartite windows with painted margins, and a coped parapet raised at the center.
The windows predominantly have a 12-pane glazing pattern in timber sash and case style, with 2-pane plate glass in the bay window. The roof is covered with piended platform slate and pitched slate on the rear single-storey wing, using grey slates. There are paired corniced ashlar stacks with octagonal clay cans. The property is enclosed by a low rubble wall with ashlar copes and a high rubble wall around the rear garden.
Inside, the villa features a central hall with a curved staircase flanked by the principal rooms, and the staircase has a cast-iron balustrade. The former first-floor drawing room has been divided into a bedroom and closet, and there has been some remodelling of the first-floor landing in the late 19th century.
