It is not easy to create anything of high standards in the genre of detached family houses. Many people explain it away with a lack of money that in Hungary there are lots of low-standard ones, but sometimes it turns out that excellent houses can be built with inventive, economical, disciplined approach and a lot of work, even with a modest budget. The former resort district of Solymár at the foot of Zsíros Hill has evolved into an area of detached family houses in the past few decades, with an architecture featuring Hungarian balustrade-Romanticism and competing with one another. The house excels with its hiding nature, modesty and discipline among the showy ones surrounding it.
