Description
Numbers 2, 3, and 4, along with the attached railings to number 4, form a terrace of four houses built around 1828-1836, with later additions and alterations. The houses are constructed of reddish-brown brick with painted stucco facades on the left-hand side, scored to resemble ashlar. The roofs are a mix of cement tiles on the left and Welsh slate to the right. Cast-iron railings and balconies are also present.
The terrace comprises two ranges, each of three storeys with a basement and attic, and a total of four first-floor windows. There is a single-storey, single-entrance bay to the returns, and a pair of single-storey entrance bays between the ranges. The first floor features 8-pane French windows with divided overlights, detailed with tooled architraves and blind boxes. The second floor has 6/6 sash windows with similar architraves and blind boxes. Ground-floor windows are also 6/6 sashes, matching the upper floors. Attic windows are 3/6 sashes, while other attic gables have casement windows.
The central entrance has six roll-edged steps leading to a four-panel door and a screened porch with fluted Doric columns, with another four-panel door set within a frieze and divided overlight. The entrance to number 4 Beauchamp Hill has a solid porch with a frieze, cornice, and blocking course, while the entrance to number 4 Warwick Terrace has a Doric screen, now glazed in, with a frieze and cornice. Each range is finished with a frieze, cornice, and copings. Tall stacks with cornices are located at the left end of each range. The right gable ends have a pedimented appearance and contain blind windows.
The left return to Beauchamp Hill has 6/6 sash windows on the first and second floors and two 6/6 sashes on the ground floor, all in plain reveals. The main facade features continuous balustrades with decorative balusters.
Inside number 4 Warwick Terrace, a dogleg staircase has turned balusters on the ground floor, and stick balusters elsewhere. The area railings to the right have fleur-de-lys finials.
