Good grouping of late 1920's Bungalows. Surrounding stone cliff faces clearly define the grouping. Consistency of roof shapes and terra cotta roof tiles, particularly noticeable from vantage points nearby. Most double gabled, with colonettes and brick piers to flat roofed porches. Dark brick with stone foundations. Some alterations, including painting/rendering of brick, and porch enclosures. Overall consistency and integrity is good.
