Machrie Mhor is a villa on Victoria Road in Lenzie, East Dunbartonshire, Scotland. Built around 1920,[1] the villa was once home to the Scottish tenor Kenneth McKellar (1927–2010).[2][3]

The villa is built in the "Queen Anne Revival-style." The exterior is harled, with ashlar quoins and dressings. The double-fronted south facade has a Doric portico.[1] Post 1997, the house has been extended to a total floor area of over 5,000 square feet (460 m2).[2] It has been a category C listed building since 17 August 1977.[1]
