Decorating Dorset Mews

Dorset Mews is a quiet converted mews street tucked behind the Georgian terraces of Marylebone, retaining the original cobbled surface and intimate scale of a Victorian stable lane that has been sympathetically transformed into highly sought-after residential accommodation. The mews houses present painted rendered or brick elevations with a variety of bespoke front doors and window arrangements, creating an attractive and characterful streetscape typical of central Marylebone. Its location within the Portman Estate places Dorset Mews firmly in one of London's most desirable and well-managed residential neighbourhoods.

The painted rendered elevations of Dorset Mews properties require breathable masonry coatings and careful surface preparation to manage the micro-climate of an enclosed mews, where limited air circulation can increase moisture retention and accelerate paint deterioration.
