Description

The Estate Office at Buxley, part of Manderston House, is a building from the later 19th century, with alterations and an addition made around 1900 by John Kinross. It is a two-storey, three-bay gabled house, featuring a later single-storey addition that projects to the southeast. The exterior is constructed from stugged squared and snecked sandstone, with droved ashlar dressings, and the side elevations and rear are roughly squared and snecked. The building has chamfered arrises.

On the southwest elevation, the central bay is advanced and gabled, featuring a boarded door with a rectangular plate glass letterbox fanlight above it. There is a corbelled coped, balustraded parapet above, and a window at the first floor. The ground floor has a window, and there is another window breaking the eaves at the first floor in the flanking gabled bays. The addition on the outer right is set back and has a window facing southwest.

The southeast elevation consists of four bays, arranged in a 2-1-1 grouping. There is a window at ground level in the two-bay group of the house to the left, and a window at the first floor above in the bay to the right. A timber canopy is located above the door in the inner right bay. To the right, there is a gabled extension from 1900, which has a window at ground level and a rectangular carved plaque at the gablehead featuring an interlinked "M" with a sheaf of corn.

The northeast elevation includes a full-height addition in the centre, along with various single-storey outbuildings. The house features four-pane timber sash and case windows, while the addition has a 16-pane timber sash and case window on the southwest elevation. The roof is covered with slate and has ashlar coped stacks. The house also has timber simple bargeboarding with exposed rafters.

The interior was not seen during the last inspection in 1995.
