Dear Carol

I do encounter such types of houses:-

1. In a very broad sense, this house is "entrapped."

2. To the extend of it being entrapped, it depends on various factors:

2.1 As you mentioned that it is at the same level as other houses.

2.2 Neighbouring houses are of the same level and there is no dominant houses around it i.e. taller than it is.

3. One important thing to note is to look at the frontage of all the houses within or surrounding this "entrapped" house.

3.1 For example, if the frontage of the house is facing the front house which has a frontage in the similar direction and lined up approximately the same level, the front house would enjoy its normal share of Qi influence while the house in question not receive the same Qi as a normal house as it is blocked by the front house.

3.2 If the frontage faces the road leading to the house (parallel to it), the Qi is acceptable but this also depends on the house it is facing.

3.3 If the houses side by side of the house in question has its frontage similar facing as the house infront of the `flag house' this is better than having the frontage of both houses (left and right of it) facing it.

More details such as the above is needed to make further analysis.

You also mentioned that there is a water position behind the house. This is inauspcious.

Overall, it is best to avoid such a house if you can. Even if one gets such a house, its Feng Shui is either from average to below average or inauspicious.

The above is not an exhaustive comment as we have not really seen the actual view of the site (the house and its neighbours).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
