If you haven’t you could be missing out on something perfect for you. Let’s take some time to talk about why this overlooked housing type, might just be what you’re looking for.    ![001_garbett_4135-22MLS](https://blog.garbetthomes.com/hs-fs/hubfs/001_garbett_4135-22MLS.jpg?width=714&height=476&name=001_garbett_4135-22MLS.jpg) ## What Are Townhomes?   Townhomes are sets of attached single-family homes. Usually with a small front yard, or other type of landscaping. They usually offer 1 – 3 bedrooms and have between 900 – 1,900 square feet. Although there are of course, exceptions to this. Most importantly, when you own a townhome you own the home and the land underneath your home. But the stats only tell what a townhome physically is. It doesn’t do a lot to tell you why you should buy a townhome.  ![021_garbett_lot_45_21MLS.jpg?v=1694452642&width=800](https://blog.garbetthomes.com/hubfs/Imported%20images/021_garbett_lot_45_21MLS.jpg%3Fv=1694452642%26width=800.jpg)   ## Brand New Homes Where You Want to Live  Townhomes tend to be built in areas that were already popular to live in or are on their way to becoming popular. Whether that’s because they’re close to jobs, recreation and restaurants, or they were yesterday’s bedroom communities and people want to move back home. They’re built where there is demand for housing. As a side effect, they allow homebuyers the opportunity to buy something brand new for the same cost as an older home. An older home that might have hidden costly repairs waiting to ruin your financial plans.   ![001_garbett_4126_-1_61MLS.jpg?v=1729096995&width=800](https://blog.garbetthomes.com/hubfs/Imported%20images/001_garbett_4126_-1_61MLS.jpg%3Fv=1729096995%26width=800.jpg)   ## They Fit Many Lifestyles  Whether you like a quiet evening with a good book, going hiking on the weekends, or visiting with family. The lower maintenance demands of a townhome might help get more of what you love out of life. Or give you the time and money to help you start a new chapter. These aren’t homes that only work for newlyweds and divorcees like you might think. They’re for whoever is looking to get more of what they enjoy out of life.     If you’re curious about what townhomes can do for you, please consider exploring our townhome communities in Murray, Millcreek, Salt Lake City, and Wasatch County today!
