Bordering the avenue, these five semi-detached houses, formerly known as Les Quintuplées, were originally named after women. Villa Gabrielle (No. 12), Villa Juanita (No. 14), villa Jenny (No. 16), villa Nelly (No. 18) and villa Colomba (No. 20). They were later renamed.
These 5 villas form a group whose overall symmetrical composition is centred on the central building (N°16). Higher up, it features a remarkable decoration consisting of a head in the round in a large medallion, floral motifs and draperies. A small triangular pediment crowns the façade. On either side of this house, the two adjoining buildings each feature a remarkable balcony with metal railings and brackets and metal lintels, punctuated with discs and crowned with masks and foliage. The two end houses feature a large dormer window covered by a high roof. This category of semi-detached houses differs from villas in that it is built on a narrow plot of land, while still using the architectural vocabulary associated with villas.
