What are the housing classifications in Australia?

Australia is a Commonwealth country, mainly following the British system. Its real estate construction can be roughly divided into the following categories: houses, townhouses, apartments, units, villas and studios.

I detached houses/villas

Australian villa house is a one-story or two-story single-family house with its own independent yard and house. Courtyard is the most important symbol of a house. All houses in Australia have greening requirements and need adequate lawn coverage. There are green grass in the yard, BBQ can play games freely, trampoline and other things can be put in the yard, and clothes hangers can be put in the yard to dry clothes. The disadvantage is that there may be bugs and ants, which need to be mowed regularly.

Each house is built independently, and the styles can be varied. Because the owner owns the whole land, he can rebuild the house according to his personal preference (approved by DA). According to the materials, houses mainly include brick houses, wooden houses and brick houses. A brick house is a house whose outer walls are completely made of bricks. This kind of house is the best in the house. Warm in winter and cool in summer, with good thermal insulation. Moreover, it is not easy to corrode, and there are fewer bugs after maintenance. The general price of a house is higher. The wooden house is a house with completely wooden exterior walls, which is relatively poor in the house and has poor thermal insulation. In winter, because the sun can't get in, it is colder indoors than outdoors. In summer, some houses are poorly ventilated, and it is hotter inside than outside. Moreover, the wooden house is prone to cracks and insects are easy to come in. Need careful maintenance. This is the cheapest house.

Brick houses are wooden houses. Finally, stick a layer of brick skin outside the house, which looks the same as the brick house from the outside, but knocking on the inner wall will make a sound of knocking on wood, and the quality is between the wooden house and the brick house.

Second, townhouses

The townhouse's townhouse nature restricts the yard from being very big, and if it is, it is also a yard smaller than the house. A townhouse can be several villas connected nearby. Because adjacent townhouses * * * * share a wall, one next to the other, it is also called a townhouse in China.

The unified style of design may even be unified in the interior decoration. As far as huxing itself is concerned, townhouses do not have many advantages compared with other residential types, and even the width is often smaller and the depth is often greater. But its advantages are private gardens and terraces, which make residents feel like living in a house.

Row houses are generally brick houses, with relatively few wooden houses. It is best to have a house that is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the townhouses here are generally two floors, but there are not many three floors. Because it is taller than the house, the second floor is better ventilated and the scenery is better than the house. Generally speaking, townhouses have smaller courtyards, fewer bugs and cleaner indoor environment. Conditions are generally better than houses.

The first floor of a townhouse generally has a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, a living room and some bedrooms. The second floor is generally mainly the bedroom, living room and bathroom. The number of rooms in townhouses is mostly 3 ~ 6, which is also quite lively.

Iii. Apartments

Apartment is a common apartment in China, with at least three floors. Each floor has one or more units, and each unit has a corridor. Generally, apartments have elevators, and each unit has one or more households on each floor. Generally speaking, the security of apartments is the best, and most of them have access control systems. Most apartment units have anti-theft facilities, and you need to swipe your card to enter. Suitable for students and young skilled immigrants, the apartment area is about 890 to more than 200 square meters, with subletting property rights.

Externally, most apartments in Australia are frame structures, which can withstand at least an earthquake of magnitude 7. Because the quality and safety of the house are the best, the rent of the apartment is generally the highest.

Some apartments have their own swimming pools and gyms, and people in the whole building can use them for free. Apartments are generally higher, so there are fewer bugs, good air circulation and smooth ventilation. There is an indoor unified garage downstairs, so it is safe to store vehicles.

The interior decoration of the apartment is modern design, mostly with independent laundry room, washing machine and dryer, and generally more than one bathroom; There is a stove and oven in the kitchen. The number of rooms ranges from 2 to 4, with 2 and 3 rooms being more common. Many apartments have study rooms without windows. The balcony of an apartment is generally large, and tables and chairs can be placed. This is a good place for leisure.

Fourth, the unit room

The unit can be simply said to be an old apartment building. Most of the houses are two or three floors, and there is no elevator in the old unit. The unit generally has no access control system, and the unit door can be opened with a key.

The unit is usually 1~4 rooms, but it is rare to have more than 4 rooms. The unit bathroom is generally 1 ~ 2, and the house has wooden houses and brick houses. Generally, because the unit is also a conjoined building and a brick house, the thermal insulation is better than that of a brick house, and the effect of being warm in winter and cool in summer is better.

The unit doesn't have its own yard, so like the apartment, clothes and bedding can only be put on the balcony to dry with hangers. Because it's short, things like bugs and flies are easy to enter. When necessary, some pesticides need to be prepared and removed in time. As an excessive housing type in Sydney's housing market, its price is equivalent to an apartment, which will be cheaper.

Verb (short for verb) studio

Studio originally meant studio, but now it refers to an open house without internal wall partition, also known as loft or studio apartment.

A single-family house is a big room when you enter the door. The living room, kitchen and bedroom are all together. It originated in new york in 1960s and 1970s and rose rapidly in 1980s. With the resurgence of personalized wave, this new architectural form called LOFT by western artists has gradually evolved into a fashionable living and lifestyle.

A studio is a studio, similar to a hotel room, but requires an extra kitchen. Generally, the kitchen and the living room and bedroom are integrated, and a single room is the bathroom. The number of layers is not necessarily. There are high-rise and short ones.
