A fine example of a later Victorian Montrose villa that is remarkably unaltered both externally and internally. The sash and case windows are fitted with a type of hinge peculiar to Montrose and found in (very few) early 19th century High Street properties. The cast-iron balustrade is by Walter MacFarlane & Co., of Glasgow who were responsible for ironwork as far afield as the Raffles Hotel in Singapore (information courtesy of owner).
