I really prefer a townhouse over a single Family Home, but i'm concerned about space?
Does it makes sense to raise a family of 4 in a townhouse instead of a Single Family home. A single family home doesnt really appeal to me and it is cheaper. I'm looking in a nice area, so a single family home that is of the same age will be around 1 million, plus I want private schools for the 2 kids. I am just concerned with space. Opinions are appreciated!
I have one of each. I live in the house with my father, since my mother died and my son and his wife live in my townhouse. Both have 3 bedrooms, the house has 2 full baths, and the townhouse has a full bath upstairs and a half bath down. Both have full basements. The house has a long skinny kitchen/breakfast nook and a separate dining room. The townhouse has a big kitchen with a breakfast bar between it and the dining room, so it's all pretty open. The living rooms are pretty much the same size, and the bedrooms are comparable. The house has a huge yard which requires way too much work, and a 2 car garage. The townhouse has a very small yard, but there's a pool and clubhouse, and sadly no garage. I can't manage the steps in the town house anymore, although I could probably do it if I put the laundry room upstairs. The laundry is in the basement at the house too, and I'm happy I have a lot of clothes and only have to go down there once in a great while. The townhouse actually has more living space than the house, but basically they are very comparable. If it wasn't for the steps, I would really prefer the townhouse. They were both built in 1965.
A million dollars! That should make up your mind for you.
