Designed by James Miller, c.1900. The largest of the three houses forming the terrace with No.s 8 and 9, partly due to expansion in 1904, including the billard room, which was then heightened and the first floor drawing room was extended above. The interior is particuarly fine, with high quality woodwork in the hall and ground floor rooms, stained glass by Oscar Paterson on the stair and the rather Baroque revival drawing room on the first floor.
The house was joined with No.s 8 and 9 in the 1940's to form a care home for the Church of Scotland, possible re-separation of the house post development in 2007-8.
