The houses are three storeys high, with a basement and a mansard attic. Most have two windows on each floor, with the end houses each containing a single window. The ground floor is treated with channelled stucco. An iron balcony runs across the first floor of each house, with the exception of number 37, which has been altered. A single-storey entrance wing projects from the return of number 43.
