85-91 Genesta Road, Grade II* listed residential structure in Royal Borough of Greenwich, England.
The four terraced houses at 85-91 Genesta Road exhibit modernist architecture with concrete construction and spiral staircases leading to elevated living rooms.
Completed in 1934, these houses were designed by architect Berthold Lubetkin and represent the first modernist terrace constructed in Britain during the 1930s.
The architectural design incorporates concrete window bands, articulated party walls, and intermediate columns that demonstrate early modernist residential principles in England.
The houses feature ground-floor entrances with off-street parking spaces and distribute living areas between first and second floors, maximizing space utilization.
The properties stand on a former orchard site with a northern slope, offering views across the River Thames through their distinctive horizontal window arrangements.
