A residential house is a building containing one or two housing units. Detached houses, terraced houses, linked houses and semidetached houses are all classified as residential houses, as are buildings on leasehold sites if they are prepared for residential use. A residential house on a leasehold site, such as an allotment-garden cottage, must be assessed for taxation as a property despite being classed as movable property. A residential housing unit can also be an undeveloped plot of land on which the owner intends to construct residential houses.
The property tax assessment does not differentiate between residential houses used as a permanent residences and those used as holiday homes.
A residential house located on a property that also includes productive land (arable land, pastureland or forest land) is classified as a residential house on an agricultural property.
