The terrace includes flatted raised and advanced end pavilions, with a four-storey west pavilion. The building is constructed of ashlar stone, with a channelled design at the ground floor.
Number 24 has a recessed door flanked by tripartite windows, which are corniced and supported by pilaster mullions. Above, a central window features a lugged architrave. The building has an eaves cornice and a parapet.
Numbers 25, 26, 29, and 30 are arranged in symmetrical pairs with three bays each. They have recessed doors set in the centre, flanked by windows. The ground floor features a cornice, while the first floor has a cill band and windows with lugged architraves. These buildings also have an eaves cornice and a parapet.
Numbers 27 and 28 consist of two bays each, with paired entrances to the inner bays, flanked by balustraded canted windows that rise to the first floor, alongside a bipartite central window. The ground floor has a cornice, and the first floor windows above the entrances feature lugged architraves. Two string courses connect the first floor cornice to the cill band of the second floor, which has outer tripartite windows with lugged architraves. These buildings also have an eaves cornice and a parapet.
Number 31 has a ground floor flat and features three bays at number 24, with an added fourth floor that continues the detailing. It has a four-bay facetted corner, with pilasters dividing the first floor windows. The second and third floor windows have lugged architraves.
The east return to Buckingham Street has ten bays that repeat the main elevation, with shorn architraves, two close entries, and a tripartite main door.
