Description

No. 140 Piccadilly, including No. 11 Hamilton Place, is an end of terrace town mansion built around 1870. It is constructed from Portland stone and features a slate roof. The building showcases a mix of Italianate and French Renaissance styles, with a significant amount of ornamental detail. It stands four storeys tall, has a basement, and a dormered mansard roof.

The façade is three windows wide with a canted corner and a seven-window return that leads to Hamilton Place. The ground and first floors have recessed plate glass sashes, with a central three-light pilastered bow. The first-floor windows are archivolt arched and flanked by panelled pilasters with carved spandrel panels. The second and third floors have simpler sashes, with a tripartite grouping in the centre.

Additional features include string courses, a stone balcony on the first floor with an ornamental iron balustrade, an enriched bracketed main cornice, and a crowning balustrade that is interrupted by elaborately supported stone dormers. The return to Hamilton Place features a broad central three-window canted bay, flanked by two-storey canted bays. The entrance is located in the right-hand bay, under a Doric portico-porch supported by pink granite columns, with archivolt arched windows on the first and second floors. There is also a canted chimney breast bay next to the corner, which is panelled up to the cornice. The left side of the building has a three-window wide break with quoins, and heavy cast iron area railings complete the exterior.
