47 Errol Road, Invergowrie

This is a two-storey and attic villa with a later single-storey and attic coach house/stable block, built in 1904 by Thomas M Cappon. The house is near rectangular in shape, with an Italianate entrance tower and an L-shaped arrangement due to the adjacent coach house/stable block to the north-east. The villa is constructed of stugged snecked rubble with stugged and margined red ashlar dressings, the ground floor windows on the south elevation featuring tooled details. It has a green slate platform roof. The windows are mostly sash and case, with plate glass lower sashes and multi-pane uppers, and chamfered jambs on the south elevation. Deep eaves are supported by rounded brackets, and shouldered stacks rise through the eaves.

The south elevation features a three-stage tower recessed to the left, with a panelled and glazed door, sidelights, a multi-pane fanlight, and bipartite windows on the first and second floors. A shallow pyramidal roof tops the tower, ornamented with a decorative cast-iron weathervane finial. The main body of the elevation is symmetrical, with projecting four-light windows at ground floor, linked by a semi-platformed roof forming a verandah. A window is situated on the first floor centre, flanked by tripartite windows. A four-light flat-roofed dormer is also present.

The east elevation is occupied by the coach house/stable block, featuring a door and window on the left, a first-floor window, and two gabled dormers, alongside a later flat-roofed dormer. Modern sliding patio doors have been inserted into a window on the left return, with a later flat-roofed dormer above.

The north elevation shows the main house recessed to the right, with a small bipartite window to ground floor centre, a multi-pane stair window above, flanked by bipartites at ground and first floor, and a further single window to the first floor right. The coach house/stable block is advanced to the left; it has two small windows to ground floor, a gabled dormer-headed window breaking through the eaves, a large depressed-arch carriage entrance (now filled with a modern garage door), and a tripartite dormer-headed window with a half-timbered gable. Extensions and cellars are located at the north-west gable.

The interior includes a scale and platt staircase with turned balusters, decorative cornices, keystoned and consoled segmental arches at the hall and landing, and original fireplaces that have been removed.
