Description

This is a house dating from approximately 1823 to 1834, with later additions and alterations including 19th-century bay windows. It was likely designed by Edward Jenkins for the developer, James Fisher. The exterior is stucco over brickwork, featuring concealed roof details and four stacks of stucco and brick. There is also an iron balcony.

The house is three storeys high, with three windows on the first floor, accompanied by a two-storey bay to the left and a single-storey bay to the right. Stucco detailing includes horizontal bands and a crowning cornice with a blocking course. The canted outer bays extend over two storeys and have windows with single sashes and crowning cornices. The first floor has a central window with a six-over-nine sash and margin lights; the second floor has six-over-six sashes with margin lights in plain reveals and sills. The central entrance has a flight of steps leading to a six-panel, partially glazed door with an overlight featuring glazing bars, set within a doorcase with paired Doric pilasters and an entablature. The end ranges have an elliptically-arched recess with a single sash window on the ground floor to the left, and a door to the right. The first floor of the left-hand end has a single sash window.

The interior was not inspected.

A first-floor balcony is positioned in front of the central window, featuring an oval and circle motif.

The house is situated within Suffolk Square, which sits on land originally acquired by the Earl of Suffolk, and later sold. Land for the square was purchased by developer James Fisher in 1823, with the villas on the west side appearing on a map from 1834. The listed buildings within Suffolk Square form a distinguished architectural group.
