Thanks for joining me for round two of my little Parade of Homes series. If you haven’t read Part 1 you can click here to check it out. Today’s post is going to share some area townhomes that I have looked at for years and are more realistic for me when looking for houses. I’ve decided on the one that we would get if we did go the townhouse route. But for now, I’m sharing some of the great townhomes in the neighborhood that we would move to. What I like when I do look at these townhomes, or any of the homes on the Parade of Homes tour, is that sometimes they’ll open up several homes that are for sale, but not on the Parade of Homes tour, for you to look at. And that’s what happened with the townhomes.
Before we get to the townhomes, I wanted to share a couple of pics that I forgot to share in my last post. These are from a home/neighborhood that I really fell in love with. It wasn’t a neighborhood I paid much attention to before, but after seeing this home, yes I would totally live here. And they’re not overpriced in my opinion.
I loved this house but I only took these pics of the master bathroom. I liked that the sinks are separated and the master bathroom is huge. {Don’t mind my children who made a few cameos}
Now onto the townhomes…
When I’m looking for homes I am looking for square footage, great kitchen, storage space and great bathrooms. The following pictures are all from the top contender townhome for us. With a first home one has to make compromises. I am willing to compromise having a single family home for a townhome if it means more square footage. I am willing to not have as many windows, and I’m willing to have a large overbearing garage.
This kitchen is really great for us, has enough counter space, has enough cabinet space and I love the floors. It gives me a little backsplash action and it looks like it can fit a monster fridge, which is awesome.
One of the reasons I love this kitchen…I love a lazy Susan. Why she has to be lazy is beyond me, but she reminds me of my grandma Josephine and is a must have for me.
Across from the kitchen is the laundry room. I’m glad it has cabinets.
Here’s the living area in the townhome. I am not a fan of a corner fireplace but I do love the stone façade. I also like that it allows more space for windows on the other walls. This looks like it’s enough space for a sectional or a full sofa collection.
This master bathroom is amazing. Gives me everything we need. It doesn’t give a full water closet but is that really a necessity? Apparently not seeing as how I don’t have one now. But I do like that it has a partition.
Talk about storage space…this master closet tho.
This is a master bath/shower combination in another townhome. The tub is jetted.
This master bath also has a water closet enclosed with a pocket door. I love a pocket door.
Here’s one of the kitchens we saw. I love it. I’m really torn when it comes to light or dark kitchens. I used to be totally cherry cabinets but now I’m really open. As long as it’s not light oak cabinets I’m happy.
I am also loving this beautiful kitchen. But what I don’t love is that this is all it is. An island could be added but where I’m standing to take the picture is where a table would go and that’s the only dining space in the home. That takes it off the list.
That’s all for today’s post in the Parade of Home series. I hope you enjoyed it. And look forward to the final post in the series coming soon. Eventually once we do move the blog will start to turn in direction. I want to be more of a home/décor/organization/lifestyle blogger and add all of that on to what I share currently. Until next time friends!
