Moine-Na-Vey

Moine-Na-Vey is a fascinating villa built in 1922, with alterations and additions made in 1930 by Jenkins and Marr from Aberdeen, and a conservatory added around 1985. This single and two-storey building features a butterfly plan and showcases Arts and Crafts detailing, including dramatic steeply-pitched swept roofs, monumental stacks, and eyelid dormers. The exterior is finished with harl using white Inver granite and pink local granite, along with a base course and stone cills. Timber mullions are also present.

The entrance elevation faces northwest and features a broad two-leaf timber door set back at the center, positioned under a large tripartite window and tall roof. The flanking 'butterfly' wings have small windows on the ground floor and diminutive dormers above. To the left, there is a V-plan advanced face. The porch is blocky and castellated, with a blocked door, and there is a non-traditional conservatory to the southwest. The southeast garden elevation has a battered pier supporting the roof over the right re-entrant angle, while a similar pier on the left re-entrant is concealed by the conservatory. The windows have a small-pane glazing pattern, and the coped ashlar stacks are topped with cans. The eaves overhang and there are cast iron rainwater goods.

Inside, the villa features a good decorative scheme, including moulded cornices, brick and timber fire surrounds, vertically-panelled timber doors, and cast iron radiators. The staircase has a geometric oak balustrade with battered newels, some of which are very tall. The bathroom retains its original fittings.
