Real Estate Term
Rowhouse
A style of housing where homes share side walls but have their own entrance.
What is Rowhouse?
A rowhouse is a home built in a continuous row that shares walls with the units on both sides, offering more space than a condo at a lower price than a detached home. Owners typically own their unit and the land beneath it, though maintenance responsibilities vary. Rowhouses are common in urban areas where land is at a premium.
