Description

Doric Villa comprises two semi-detached villas, built around 1821 to 1826 by John Nash as part of his development of Regent’s Park. The main facade faces the park, with a rear entrance. The buildings are constructed of stucco with a slate roof. They present a unified temple front composition, two storeys in height, with three windows across the front—a central blind window and recessed wings with a single window each. The windows are glazing bar sashes. A prominent feature is the front Greek Doric portico, with an engaged pediment, a triglyph frieze, and a mutuled pediment. The wings have a sash window on the ground floor and a blind window above, finished with a cornice and blocking course. A plaque from the Greater London Council records that the villa was the residence of Sir Charles Wyndham. The villas are associated with notable figures in architectural history: John Nash (original architect) and John Summerson.
