Description
Brousterland is a late 17th-century laird's house that was refronted in the mid-18th century and has had later additions. It is a two-storey building with an attic and features a plain classical design with five bays. The entrance front is finished in droved ashlar with raised margins, while the rear is painted harl with exposed margins.
On the northeast (entrance) elevation, there are quoins at the arrises, a lugged architraved doorway with a two-leaf panel door, and two single windows on either side. The first floor has five single windows. To the left, there is a single-storey extension that connects the house to an old byre.
The southeast elevation has a single-storey extension at ground level. The southwest (rear) elevation features a large central single window, with a smaller square window above it. There are single windows in the right and left bays on both the ground and first floors, and two large dormer windows in the attic. The northwest elevation has a central single window at the ground floor.
The windows throughout the building are 12-pane timber sash and case. The roof is covered in grey slate, with crowstepped gables, beaked skewput, and coped ashlar stacks at the gableheads.
The outbuilding is constructed from squared and snecked rubble, with a harled and painted southeast elevation. This four-bay single-storey building has been converted into offices, featuring a door with two flanking windows on the left and a single window on the right of the northwest elevation. The southeast elevation has a bipartite window in the centre and a single window in the right bay on the northwest elevation. It also has sash and case windows, a slate roof, straight skews, and three coped stacks.
The byre is a single-storey building finished in painted harl and has been converted into living space. It features a door in the right bay, a small central square window, and a round arched window to the left. The roof is slate with crowstepped skews and stacks at the gableheads.
The boundary wall surrounding the property is a tall garden wall made from squared and snecked rubble with coping. It includes square ashlar gatepiers with coped caps and modern wrought-iron gates.
