has glosseng: In common speech in Australia and New Zealand, the word unit, when referring to housing, usually means either: an apartment, (where a group of apartments is contained in one or more multi-storied buildings (an apartment block));or a villa unit or home unit, where a group of dwellings is in one or more single storey buildings, usually arranged around a driveway. In this usage, a unit is a self-contained suite of rooms, usually of modest scale, which may be attached, semi-detached or detached, within a group of similar dwellings.

A single room unit is more commonly referred to as a studio flat or bedsitter, otherwise known as a Single Room Occupancy or SRO in North America.
