A particular solution may be the right one if it meets the standards of urban planning and habitability. I think they should be very similar economically if the surface area of the house and yard are the same.
Perhaps a house with a central courtyard has more corridor development and therefore more built-up area, and therefore more expensive. Also, with a central courtyard, it will be more difficult to provide natural light to the entire house, unless you are talking about a large lot.
