The building takes its name from the Victorian artist Clarkson Stanfield, a noted painter of Romantic seascapes. Stanfield was a close friend of the author Charles Dickens, who visited Stanfield there. Stanfield lived there from 1847 to 1865 before moving to nearby Belsize Park.
Later in the nineteenth century the lower floor served as a public library. The house was significantly truncated to make room for the construction of Prince Arthur Road in the late 1860s. Around 1940 the artist Walter Bayes produced a watercolour depiction of the house, which is now in the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Stanfield House has been a listed building since 1950, with its status last amended in 1999.
