Description

Arradoul House is a T-plan house built around 1800, possibly incorporating an earlier core, with additions from around 1900. The exterior is made of harled rubble with tooled and polished ashlar margins and dressings. The entrance is located in the center of the four-bay east elevation, which is covered by a single-storey rectangular porch from circa 1900 that features windows and a side entrance. The porch has rusticated ashlar quoins, a continuous moulded cornice, and a balustrade.

The west front has four bays with a projecting gabled center that includes two bays, a small attic window, and an apex stack. There are single-storey rectangular projecting windows on either side, and similar two-storey projecting windows on the south gable. To the north, there is a long gabled two-storey range from circa 1800 that forms one arm of the T and may include an earlier single-storey house, which now serves as the kitchen area.

The west side features two small swept dormers from the 20th century, and the house mainly has 12-pane glazing. There are margined end and apex stacks, and the roofs are covered with Banffshire slate with stone ridges.
