Below are some definitions of the different property
types in Fairfield which are classified as attached homes.
Link: This style of housing looks like a separate unit but
is linked underground by either a concrete wall connecting two foundations
or a steel rod stretching from foundation to foundation. These dwellings
may be a two-storey style, bungalow style, etc., but it is most important
they be identified as a link. Legal description must be checked carefully
to determine if a dwelling is a link.
Semi-detached: This type of housing in Fairfield
contains two separate dwelling units attached each on its own lot.
May share a common wall or be separated by a garage or carport. Styles
include semi-bungalow, semi-split, and semi-two-storey.

Fairfield looks like a semi-detached except there are two municipal
addresses under the ownership of a single person.
Duplex (Up and Down): This is a building that
consists of two dwelling units, one above the other under the ownership
of a single person.

three or more dwelling units of similar design and sizes are attached
together, each on its own lot with separate ownership.

the garage may allow access to the rear yard via an overhead door.

ownership units lying within a low, mid or hi-rise building offering
common facilities such as hallways, parking lots, elevators, etc.
