Often overlooked during the home buying process, townhouses offer several benefits that traditional apartments and single-family homes sometimes lack. From extra security to less responsibility for maintenance and more, townhouses can be an excellent choice for many homeseekers alike. Below are four reasons why you should always keep townhouses in mind while shopping for a new home.
Less Upkeep
Wave goodbye to Saturday mornings filled with yard work and lists of endless home “to do” lists. One of the many perks of living in a townhouse is being part of a homeowners association, or HOA, which is typically responsible for all upkeep. Townhouse living can bring all the functionality of a single family home without the burden of mowing the lawn or pulling up weeds. If having a home of your own without having the responsibility of maintenance is your dream, then a townhouse could be your knight in shining armor.
A Sense of Community
Traditional homes can often feel isolated. Conversely, townhouses are frequently built close to one another, quickly fostering close-knit relationships among neighbors. According to Head to Health, having a sense of community is very important and can positively affect mental health and emotional well-being.
Increased Security
Maybe the biggest perk of living in a townhouse for you is the dense of community along with the included security without having to go through the hassle and cost of setting it up on your own. Securing a single family home often comes with the expense of installing fencing, alarm systems, and even security cameras. On the other hand, townhouse communities are already well-lit, outfitted with multiple security measures, and may also be gated.
Great Location
For many buyers looking for a new place to call home, location is key. Because townhouses are frequently more economical and compact than traditional homes, they are often comfortably situated in denser, more convenient locations. Townhouse communities can be found within walking distance of vibrant areas that feature diverse shopping, dining, and entertainment options—making them a great choice for those looking to experience all that Nashville has to offer.
