The house is Grade C listed building. This listing is usually applied to buildings of special architectural or historical interest which are good examples of a particular period, style or type. In this case a C listing does not prevent alterations, it simply requires that listed building permission must be sought in advance. Further information is available from Historic Environment Scotland.
