Description
No. 4 Lexden Terrace is the fourth house in a terrace of six, built in the late 18th century. It is a three-storey house with a basement, and features two bays. The facade is stuccoed and is characterized by giant Ionic pilasters on the upper two floors, rising from a band above the ground floor; an additional pilaster sits between Nos. 5 and 6. A full entablature with a moulded cornice and parapet tops the building, with slate roofs and brick chimneys. The upper floors contain twelve-pane sash windows. Ground floor openings are not aligned, with a door to the left and a tripartite sash window to the right, notable for its unusual glazing pattern of marginal panes surrounding an elongated octagon.
A flight of steps leads to the entrance, flanked by wrought-iron railings with scroll-designed uprights to each doorway. The stuccoed doorcases have cornices, and the doors themselves are of two long panels, with overlights featuring tracery reminiscent of the ground floor window.
The rear elevation is stuccoed and features a parapet and a continuous first-floor balcony with decorative cast-iron railings, pierced open-work uprights, and a lead tent awning.
The interior is reported to be of good quality, featuring cantilevered stairs rising around an elliptical well, lit by a glazed dome. Other features include panelled doors, window shutters, and further original details.
