52, Campden Hill Square, W8

No. 52 Campden Hill Square is a terrace house built around 1830-1831, possibly designed by George Edward Valintine for Joshua Flesher Hanson, who was responsible for laying out the square in 1826. The house is constructed of stock brick and features end stacks, with its roof hidden by parapets. It has three storeys and four bays, including two narrow central bays flanked by projecting flat bays with rounded corners. All the windows are sash style with glazing bars, except for the ground floor where the bow windows have French doors set in tripartite surrounds with square glazing bars. The entrance door is located in the left-hand central bay and is adorned with a projecting Doric porch. The door itself is panelled and includes a decorated toplight. There is banding above the first and second floors. Although the interior has not been inspected, this house is noted as the most architecturally distinguished individual residence in Campden Hill Square and may have been intended as Valintine's own home. It forms a mirrored pair with No. 2 on the opposite side of the square, but stands out due to its grand portico.
