einbýlishúsum
Einbýlishús, often translated as detached houses or single-family homes, are a common type of residential dwelling. They are characterized by their separation from other homes, standing on their own plot of land. This isolation provides a degree of privacy not found in attached housing types such as row houses or apartments. Einbýlishús can vary significantly in size, architectural style, and amenities, catering to diverse needs and preferences. They typically include a private entrance, often a garden or yard space, and are usually self-contained units.
The ownership of an einbýlishús generally involves owning both the structure and the land it sits on.
