This type of house was usually erected by developers or builders for sale when completed. They often infilled areas of bomb damage in suburban locations, or were situated on the new estates that sprang up after the last war (one hopes it was the last war). They are very rarely models of immaculate design, but usually provide a functional arrangement of 2½ bedrooms, bathroom, 2 reception rooms and a kitchen with a garage or garage space and some form of drive. The layout of the pre‐war 1930s type property is very similar but the methods of construction and the failures that one will find vary considerably.
