TOWN HOUSES:

 A townhouse, or town house, as used in North America, Asia, Australia, South Africa and parts of

Europe, is a type of  medium-density housing in cities, usually but not necessarily terraced (row housing)

or  semi-detached. A modern town house is often one with a small footprint on multiple floors. The term

originally referred in British usage to the city residence of a member of the nobility, as opposed to their

country seat.
