In Singapore, the terms "maisonette" and "duplex" can be used interchangeably, but there are some subtle differences and confusions compared to their definitions elsewhere. Here's a breakdown for Singapore:
Maisonette & Duplex:
Generally Used For: These terms typically refer to a single-unit dwelling with living areas spread across two floors connected by internal stairs.
Location: Can be found in condominiums or landed housing estates.
Ground Floor Unit with Patio: This could be a maisonette if it has its own internal staircase leading to the upper floor and a private entrance (separate from the common corridor).
Walk-Up Apartment:
Definition: An apartment unit in a building with no elevators. Units can be on any floor, including the ground floor with a patio. They are generally more affordable.
