Description
No. 93 is a terraced corner house located on Harley Street, built around 1777 as part of the Portland Estate development, likely designed by John White in collaboration with the plasterer Thomas Collins, who were associates of Sir William Chambers. The building is constructed of stock brick with a channelled stucco ground floor and features a slate roof. It has a bowed rear and wing with a bowed re-entrant angle, standing four storeys tall with a basement. The façade is three windows wide, with a four-window return to Weymouth Street.
The entrance features a semicircular arched doorway beneath an early to mid-19th century stucco Doric columned porch, which includes a panelled door, sidelights, and a fanlight. The upper floors have recessed sash windows under flat gauged arches. The exterior is adorned with stucco plat bands and a modillion cornice. An early 19th century cast iron balcony with an enriched slender baluster pattern spans the first floor, and there are cast iron area railings with urn finials.
Inside, the house showcases a fine interior typical of high-quality speculative houses from the 1770s in Harley Street. Notable features include a top-lit geometrical stone staircase with an anthemion-scroll wrought iron balustrade and a decorated skylight drum. The interior plasterwork includes delicate flutes, patera, wreaths, and garlands, along with stucco mythological relief medallions in the style of Chambers, framed by garlands over inlaid marble chimneypieces and in the hall. The house also features mahogany doors and other elegant details.
