What is an attached single family home?

An attached single-family home is a residential property that shares one or more walls with neighboring homes but is still considered a single-family dwelling. Unlike multi-family units such as apartments, each attached home is designed for one household and typically has its own entrance, utilities, and yard space. Common examples include townhouses and duplexes, where the homes are connected in a row or side-by-side configuration. This type of housing can offer a balance between single-family living and the benefits of a community setting.
