Description
No. 24 Acacia Road is a semi-detached villa built around 1830-1840 as part of the Portland Estate St John's Wood villa development. The villa is constructed of stucco and features a channelled basement, topped with a slate roof. It exhibits an Italianate-Grecian style and stands two storeys high above a semi-basement, with three windows across its façade.
A flight of steps leads up to the left-hand side, where there is an architraved doorway with console cornices, a panelled door, and a margin glazed fanlight. The ground floor windows are recessed sashes with margin glazing, set in moulded architraves that have cornices supported by consoles. The design includes a Doric order of pilasters that rise from a plat band above the semi-basement to a frieze beneath the flat eaves of the low-pitched hipped roof, which is flanked by corniced chimney stacks. The windows are protected by cast iron geometric patterned guards. This villa type is similar to the adjoining Eyre Estate.
