The Perks of Owning a Townhome

A townhome is the ideal blend of the space of a single-family home and the convenience of low-maintenance condo living. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer or ready to right-size your lifestyle, a townhome could present the just-right solution for you. In fact, at Hunter Quinn Homes, we’re seeing so many people who appreciate the perks of owning a townhome that we are launching three new townhome communities around North Charleston, South Carolina— Tributary, Creekside at Horizon Village, and Alston Place.

Comfortably sized. A townhome gives you a fairly wide range of square footage, so you don’t feel cramped. The floor plans could range from a little over 1,000 square feet to well over 2,000—the size of many single-family homes. You can choose a townhome with a first-floor master suite, if that’s your desire, or opt for the bedrooms on the upper floor. Townhomes usually include an attached garage, so you can still enjoy this convenience.

Privacy. With a townhome, you have no upstairs neighbors. And Hunter Quinn designs our townhomes with noise reduction so you don’t hear the activity in an adjacent unit. 

Safe and secure. Many townhome residents appreciate having neighbors close enough to feel “connected”. They often look out for each other. Any unusual noises or suspicious activity is noticed, and if you need to leave home for any period of time, it’s a lot easier to find someone in the neighborhood to keep an eye on your home. A gated community adds another layer of security for residents.

Low maintenance. A townhome functions like a condo, where a monthly HOA fee covers all exterior maintenance. You don’t need to take care of the lawn and landscaping or paint your home’s exterior. Forget about owning and storing a mower! In a Hunter Quinn townhome community, you can count on your property management team to keep your home’s exterior and yard looking pristine.

Amenities. A townhome community is often enhanced with amenities like a clubhouse, swimming pool, and fitness center. It’s a great way to enjoy recreation and socialize with neighbors. You might even be able to use the clubhouse for your own private functions, like a birthday party or shower. Our plans for Tributary include these community amenities as well as a play park, tennis courts, intramural field, walking paths, optional boat storage, and lush green common areas. 

The North Charleston area of South Carolina is a vibrant area to live, with good schools, plenty of recreation choices, and more ways to spend your leisure time than you can count. With a townhome’s convenience, you can get out and experience these opportunities. Talk to us at Hunter Quinn so you can reap the rewards of townhome living.
