Scotcrest, 9 Reform Street, Blairgowrie

Scotcrest, located at 9 Reform Street in Blairgowrie, is a former mission house built in 1878 and renovated in 1971. This two-storey, three-bay building features a gabled design and is part of an irregular terrace. It is constructed from squared rubble with ashlar dressings and includes a string course. The façade has a shoulder-arched doorway and pointed-arch windows, each with hoodmoulds and timber mullions.

The principal elevation is symmetrical, with steps leading up to a deep-set modern door at the center. Flanking the door are bipartite windows, and above, a string course steps over the door, creating the appearance of a hoodmould. The first floor features three hoodmoulded, pointed-arch windows, each breaking into the gablehead, with the central window being larger and adorned with a moulded trefoil that bears the date '1878'.

The southeast elevation displays a variety of elements, including a gabled bay to the right and altered horizontal windows. The building has plate glass glazing in timber sash and case windows, grey slate roofing, and coped ashlar stacks with cans, some of which are polygonal. The skews are also ashlar-coped, and there are cast-iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers and fixings.

Inside, the building has been modernized but retains its timber and decorative cast-iron balusters on the timber staircase, as well as a kingpost roof with pendant finials. The boundary walls are made of semicircular-coped rubble.
