What is freestanding housing?

Freestanding housing refers to a type of dwelling that is completely standalone and not attached to any other structure. It typically includes single-family homes, duplexes, and townhouses that are separate from any other unit. Freestanding housing may have its own yard, driveway, and outdoor space, and are often designed to provide privacy for the homeowners. This type of housing is common in suburban and rural areas, but can also be found in urban areas, although it's less common. Freestanding homes often offer more square footage and more space to spread out than apartment or condo living. However, they also require more maintenance and upkeep, and may be more expensive to purchase compared to condos or townhomes.
