Twin House / Semi Detached

A twin house (also known as a semi-detached house) refers to a pair of houses that are built side by side as units sharing a common wall, often mirror images of each other.

Each unit of a twin house is typically owned by different individuals, and each owner is responsible for their own unit, including the upkeep, repairs, and insurance. Twin houses typically have separate entrances for each unit and may have individual yards or shared outdoor spaces.

These types of properties can be an appealing option for those seeking homeownership with the benefits of shared costs on things like property insurance and maintenance, but also want more privacy and autonomy than a traditional condominium or townhouse might offer. Twin houses are also popular for their typically lower price point compared to standalone, single-family homes in the same neighborhoods.
