Description

35, 36, and 37 Alwyne Road are three terraced houses built between 1847 and 1849, likely developed and designed by James Watsaffe. The houses are constructed of yellow brick in Flemish bond, with stucco detailing and slate roofs. Nos. 35 and 36 are three storeys above a basement, while no. 37 has two storeys. No. 35 features four bays, with the two inner bays projecting forward; no. 36 is three bays wide and double-fronted; and no. 37 is also three bays wide, with the outer bay set back.

The basement has stuccoed banded rustication. The ground-floor windows are flat-arched with moulded architraves, and balconies supported by brackets, except for the outer window of no. 35, which lacks a balcony, and the outer window of no. 37, which has only a moulded architrave and is blank. First-floor windows are flat-arched with moulded architraves and cornices on consoles, except for the central window of no. 36, which has a pediment, and the outer window of no. 37, which is also blank. The second-floor windows have moulded architraves linked to the brackets of the eaves cornice. There is a stucco band at the parapet of no. 37.

The roofs are hipped, with stacks at the party walls and between the two roofs of no. 35. The entrance to no. 35 is accessed by steps through a round-arched porch with fluted Doric pilasters, supporting a semi-circular moulding with scrolling ornament in the spandrels and keystone, along with dentil cornices, a panelled door from around 1875, and an overlight. No. 36 has steps leading up to a flat-arched entrance with Doric pilasters, a plain entablature and cornice, a panelled door, and an overlight. The entrance to no. 37 is on the side elevation, with steps leading up to a flat-arched entrance featuring Doric pilasters, a plain entablature and cornice, a panelled door, and an overlight.

In the rear elevations, no. 36 retains an original semi-circular bay at the basement and ground floor, while no. 35 has a red brick bay from around 1875 at the ground floor with an ogee roof.
