Residential Types

Owning a home is everyone’s dream, especially for those who are already married. Usually, the house is used as a place to unwind, rest, entertain, and also gather with family. In general, what many Indonesians mean by house is a landed house. Namely a house whose building is separate from other houses.

However, along with the increasing price of land, the price of landed houses has also become expensive. Because of this, countless other types of houses have emerged. So, here are some other types of houses other than landed houses that you should know about:

1 Townhouses

You must have visited a housing complex and found rows of houses of the same type. Houses like this are generally referred to as Town Houses and have the same design. Both exterior and interior. Usually, in a town house complex, the developer will provide a variety of public services. This facility can be used by residents who live there.

2 Clusters

Clusters are housing complexes that are divided into several areas or sub-complexes. In a cluster, generally the houses are of the same type. Between one cluster and another cluster is generally limited by the existence of a high fence. In general, the developer also builds some common services that can be used by residents of the cluster. In addition to cluster-specific services, there are also general services that can be used together with residents from other clusters.

3 Single Houses (Detached)

Single houses actually have similarities with landed houses that have been around for a long time. However, at this time, this type of house was not used as an everyday residence, but was used as a rest house.

A single house is currently commonly used in the form of a mansion, cottage, villa or bungalow. Because it is used during holidays and for short breaks, generally single houses are built in shared places with strong natural nuances. Like the beach or mountains.

4 Coupling Houses

The Kopel House will be easy for you to find if you visit West Java areas such as Bandung and Garut. Coupling houses can be characterized by their very similar designs. Usually only separated by a wall only. In terms of size and appearance, these two couplings have the same size and appearance. Although it looks like one house divided into two, a coupling house is generally occupied by two different families. In general, the design of the coupe house is much more similar to the typical Dutch colonial house design.
