Description
Old Faskally House is likely a late 18th century, two-storey, five-bay gabled house that has been extended and altered over time. The exterior is harled with stone margins and features a corbel and stone mullions.
On the southwest elevation, there is a small gabled timber porch at the center with a studded timber door and a small window on the return. The flanking bays have enlarged windows, with the right bay featuring a bipartite window beneath a slated verandah, while the left bay has a modern window. The first floor has three regularly spaced windows that break the eaves into gabled dormerheads. The outer gabled bays are advanced, with the right bay showcasing a flat-roofed canted four-light window at ground level and two bipartite windows on the first floor. The left bay has a bipartite window on each floor and a single window, which may have been altered from a door, at the canted outer angle, corbelled to a square at the first floor.
The northwest elevation consists of two bays, featuring a window to the left at ground level and two windows on the first floor, each breaking the eaves into a tall dormerhead. The southeast elevation is a single bay with a tall bipartite window at ground level and a single window above. The northeast (rear) elevation is asymmetrical, displaying a variety of elements, including a lower projecting wing at the center with timber dormer-headed windows on the return to the left, a corbelled angle to the outer left, and later extensions.
The windows primarily have a 12-pane glazing pattern in the center southwest bays and northeast wing, while the rest mostly feature a three-pane horizontal glazing pattern, all in timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the building has coped harling with some polygonal cans. The eaves are overhanging with plain bargeboarding.
The interior, not seen in 2000, includes timber shutters and fireplaces. There is timber panelling in the porch and the room to the left at ground floor, the latter also featuring fine carved details, including fluted columns.
The property is marked by square stone gatepiers, which are topped with modern eagles.
