For the purposes of the Low Rise Housing Diversity Code (Housing Diversity Code) and this Low Rise Housing Diversity Design Guide (Housing Diversity Design Guide), low-rise housing diversity residential development means Dual occupancies, Manor houses, and ‘one above the other’ dual occupancies – buildings of between 2-4 dwellings and Multi dwelling housing (terraces). It is a development that contains two or more dwellings and is no more than two stories in height. Development under the Housing Diversity Code and the Housing Diversity Design Guide does not include the development of battle-axe lots or the creation of new battle-axe lots. Each new dual occupancy or terrace house must have a frontage to a public road.
