由来

  • 新、马两国的排屋多数为一幢房子一户人家，没有公共设施。
  • 新加坡也有政府兴建的排屋。早期的政府排屋，可追溯到1950年代。这些一楼一底的排屋由新加坡改良信托局（Singapore Improvement Trust）兴建，并于1960年代由建屋发展局（Housing & Development Board）接管。排屋的楼上是卧室，楼下是客厅、厨房、浴室和厕所。这些排屋座落在新加坡的第一个卫星镇——女皇镇（Queenstown）的史德林路（Stirling Road），位于第45，48和49座七层楼高的组屋周围。

ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “排屋” is a paraphrase of the English word “terrace house”.
  • Terrace houses are landed property built in a row of at least three residential units. The houses share common boundary walls and are built according to the regulations of the Urban Redevelopment Authority.
  • There are many different types of terrace houses, including single-storey, one-and-a-half-storey, double-storey, and multi-storey houses. These are built by property developers or private individuals.
  • Most terrace houses in Singapore and Malaysia typically house only one family, and have no common facilities.
  • Singapore also has government-built terrace houses. These early terrace flats came into existence in the 1950s. The double-storey terrace houses were constructed by the Singapore Improvement Trust, and subsequently managed by the Housing & Development Board from the 1960s. The upper floor of these houses consists of a bedroom, while the lower floor comprises a living room, kitchen, bathroom and toilet. These terrace houses are located along Stirling Road in Singapore’s first satellite estate, Queenstown, and are built in the vicinity of three 7-storey flats, Blocks 45, 48 and 49.
  • In recent years, building developers have built other types of terrace houses, such as townhouses and cluster houses.
