Its grand properties blend Queen Anne Revival architecture with Dutch, German and Northern European designs. Each property is unique, and No.5 has a facade inspired by traditional Flemish design. The neighbourhood has historically been home to several celebrated residents. In the 1920s it was occupied Harold Carter, the Egyptologist who discovered Tutankhamun's tomb.
