Full Description: Stunning C Listed West End villa with beautiful interior and lovely garden. DescriptionThis elegant yet practical home at 47 Waverley Place has significant connections to Aberdeen’s most celebrated architectural period. William Ramage, who worked as apprentice and later assistant to the legendary Archibald Simpson from around 1834, succeeded to Simpson’s practice following the master architect’s death in March 1847. His collaboration with Simpson included work on important civic buildings such as New Marischal College.The house exemplifies mid-19th century Aberdeen craftsmanship, solidly constructed from coloured granite. The building features distinctive architectural elements including pilastered timber doorways, three elegant full-sized Georgian style windows to the side, a beautiful bay window to the front, and striking curvilinear gables that grace both the principal and rear elevations. These unusual gables, along with the decorative pink granite stacks featuring modillion cornices and octagonal cans, demonstrate the sophisticated design sensibilities of the period. This elegant granite residence represents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Aberdeen’s architectural heritage. Built in 1853 with many remaining period features intact due to the foresight of past owners, the property stands as part of an elegant mirrored pair at 47 and 49 Waverley Place, showcasing unique Dutch-inspired curvilinear gables that positively set it apart from the surrounding terraces.This beautifully presented semi-detached home has been exceptionally sympathetically upgraded and features intricate cornice work, high ceilings, picture rails, some restored floorboards and fireplaces.The reception hall with double arch sets the tone of elegance and style throughout.
