Description
No. 40 Queen Anne Street is a corner terraced town house built between 1765 and 1775 as part of the Portland Estate development. The building is constructed of stock brick with a channelled stucco ground floor and features a slate roof. It stands four storeys high with a basement and is three windows wide, extending with a partly blind long return to Wimpole Street.
The entrance is marked by a semicircular arched doorway on the right, framed by a wooden Doric doorcase that includes pilasters and a steep open pediment. The door itself is panelled and topped with a reeded doorhead beneath a fanlight. The upper floors have recessed glazing bar sashes set under flat gauged arches. Above the ground floor, there is a stucco course and a plain frieze, topped by a crowning stucco cornice and blocking course. The area railings are made of cast iron and feature plumbed spike finials.
Inside, the house retains a geometrical staircase with delicately turned balusters, along with plasterwork and statuary marble chimneypieces.
