3-11, Upper Belgrave Street Sw1

Nos 3 to 11 Upper Belgrave Street is a grand terrace of houses built in the early to mid 19th century, designed in the Graeco-Roman style. The buildings are constructed of stucco and feature low slate mansards, with three storeys, an attic mansard, and a basement. Each house typically has three windows across the front, except for the end houses, which have two wide bays each. The three central houses and the end houses are adorned with a giant Corinthian order that rises through the first and second storeys. The centre house and the end bays of the end houses are slightly set forward, featuring projecting Ionic porches. The centre house also has an Ionic colonnade that spans the entire width of the ground floor. The terrace includes various panelled doors, square-headed sashed windows, and French casements on the first floor, with some glazing bars present. Above the second floor, there is a dentil cornice, along with a subsidiary cornice at the attic level. The houses are complemented by spearhead area railings and pilastered returns. This terrace plays a key role in closing the vista from the south-west along Eaton Place.
