Each house features a wooden eaves cornice with modillions and long and short quoins. There are three sash windows with intact glazing bars, and each house has a three-light bay window on every floor. The entrances are accessed by five steps and are framed by doorcases with pilasters, pediments, semi-circular fanlights, and six-panel doors.
