13, Devonshire Place W1

No. 13 Devonshire Place is a terraced town house built around 1790-1800 as part of the Portland Estate development that extended Upper Wimpole Street. The house is constructed of stock brick with a rusticated stucco ground floor and features a concealed slate roof.

The entrance includes a wide elliptical arched doorway located to the right, which has a panelled door flanked by decorated side lights, panelled jambs, an ornamented doorhead, and a delicately radial patterned fanlight. The upper floors have recessed sash windows set in stucco reveals, topped with flat gauged red brick arches. Above the first-floor windows, there are enriched stucco roundels, and a plat band finishes off the stuccowork at the first-floor level.

The building is capped with a parapet that has stone coping. A continuous cast iron balcony with a geometric pattern runs along the first floor. The area is enclosed by wrought iron railings that are enriched and topped with urn finials, along with wrought lamp standards featuring link extinguishers. For additional context, there is a mews building associated with this property at No. 13 Devonshire Mews West.
