They're definitely not
good - they're too big and cumbersome for that style, and at that size need more articulation in the form. Plus the windows look undersized and their placement is weird (that the front door is unaligned with the randomly-arched window above really bothers me), and the porches are awful. Those ledgestone-clad sections between each house are an odd choice as well.
...However, when considered within their context they're not so bad. The materials and colours relate to those of their neighbours, and they're otherwise unobtrusive in any way. It's mediocre filler that will fade into the background and that's not a terrible thing.
