A duplex is a residential building that contains two separate homes on a single lot, separated by a shared wall. These dual-living homes may either share a single land title and be sold together or have individual titles, allowing them to be sold separately.
Duplexes became popular in the 1920s and 1930s, designed to resemble single-family homes and blend harmoniously with their surrounding neighborhoods. This design approach was intended to preserve property values by maintaining a consistent streetscape. Over time, however, dual-living setups have evolved into a practical and affordable housing option.
Dual living offers great flexibility with numerous possibilities. It provides an opportunity for passive income, allowing one unit to be rented out while the owner lives in the other. Additionally, duplexes are ideal for accommodating extended family members, such as elderly or disabled relatives, or adult children. This arrangement fosters greater independence while still living on the same property.
Council regulations for dual occupancy differ from one region to another, resulting in a variety of block sizes, shapes, and plans that may or may not meet approval criteria. There is no universal solution when it comes to choosing the right land size for a dual living development. The ideal size depends on the specific needs and preferences of the buyer.
Typically, the minimum land area required for a duplex development is around 15 meters wide by 30 meters long, though this is subject to local council regulations. For more detailed recommendations, it's best to consult with your local council office.
The cost of your duplex will depend on several features including your desired design and floor plan through to your land arrangement. There is the same amount of options that affect price as there are for building a single home house.
A detached house is different from a duplex as it only contains one dwelling under a single roof, while a duplex contains two dwellings under a single roof. A duplex will share one common wall, though each dwelling will be an entirely separate entity with their own entrances and amenities.
It is possible to own only half of a duplex, though this is dependant on if the two dwellings are on the same title or on different titles. It is only possible to buy one half of a duplex if half of the development has been subdivided into separate titles.
While a duplex provides full ownership over two dwellings on one piece of land, a townhouse allows for the purchase of a single unit within a row of similar houses that share separating walls.
