This is really common in and around Boston too. The architectural style is from the area and we cal them three deckers (in Boston) or triple deckers (everywhere else). Lot size is probably similar, and they’re still highly valued (if kept up) to this day because of their construction and other benefits. I live in one now and others around me go for 750k+
