Humber/Ontario Real Estate Course 1 Exam Practice

Which of the following is NOT considered an attached home?

1. Semi-Detached

2. Multi-Family

3. Townhouse

4. Ranch Style Bungalow

5. Duplex

6. Row House

The correct answer is: Ranch Style Bungalow

A ranch-style bungalow is classified as a detached single-family home, meaning it stands independently and is not connected to any other dwelling. This distinguishes it from attached homes, which share walls with neighboring units. In contrast, semi-detached homes, multi-family residences, townhouses, duplexes, and row houses all involve shared walls or structures, making them part of the attached home category. For instance, semi-detached homes share one wall with another unit, while townhouses are typically arranged in rows, sharing side walls with neighboring homes. Multi-family buildings house multiple separate housing units within the same structure. Since the ranch-style bungalow does not share walls or a foundation with any other dwelling, it correctly falls outside the definition of an attached home.
