About Semi-Detached Homes in Mississauga
Semi-detached houses, also known as "semis," are a popular housing option in Mississauga for buyers seeking more space than a condo or townhouse but at a more affordable price than a fully detached home. These properties share one common wall with a neighbouring unit while maintaining separate entrances, driveways, and often backyards.
Benefits of Semi-Detached Living
- More Affordable: Generally priced lower than detached homes
- Private Outdoor Space: Usually includes a backyard and driveway
- No Condo Fees: Freehold ownership means no monthly maintenance fees
- Multi-Level Living: Typically 2-3 storeys with ample living space
- Great for Families: Room for kids and pets with outdoor play area
- Investment Potential: Strong appreciation in the GTA market
Popular Neighbourhoods for Semis
Semi-detached homes can be found throughout Mississauga, with concentrations in established neighbourhoods like Cooksville, Malton, Meadowvale, and Streetsville. Newer developments in Erin Mills and Churchill Meadows also offer modern semi-detached options.
Semi-Detached vs. Townhouse
While both semi-detached and townhouse options share walls with neighbours, semi-detached homes typically share only one wall (compared to two for townhouses) and often have larger lot sizes. Semi-detached homes are usually freehold, meaning you own the land, whereas some townhouses may be condos with associated fees.
