Description
No. 36 Soho Square is a terrace house built around 1680, which was refaced in the late 18th century when much of the interior was also updated. The building features painted brick with a stucco ground floor and a slate roof, standing four storeys tall with a basement. The top floor is likely a late 18th-century addition that corresponds with the refacing. The façade is three windows wide, with a doorway on the right that includes a panelled door, narrow sidelights, and a patterned semicircular fanlight above. The two ground floor sash windows were altered in the late 19th century. The upper floors have recessed sash windows with 19th-century glazing, set under flat gauged arches. There is a sill band on the first floor and a parapet with coping. The first floor features ornamental wrought iron bowed balconettes.
Inside, the house retains several notable features, including a simple early 19th-century geometric staircase and a compartment ceiling with a large oval skylight. There are remnants of a late 18th-century Doric column screen between the ground floor rooms, with the front room showcasing a well-crafted inlaid marble chimneypiece from the late 19th century, and a slightly later carved wooden chimneypiece in the rear room adorned with an arabesque and putti frieze. Additionally, there is a late 18th-century carved Grecian marble chimneypiece in the right-hand front room on the second floor, likely reset from the first floor.
