I saw the most kick a$$ townhouse today..

Too bad it is WAY over our budget. I happened to turn down this block intending to make a U Turn on my way home from another open house and saw a sign for this place.

The pictures do not do it justice AT ALL...It was HUGE.

They added a 4th bedroom in the basement and it has 3.5 baths. They had it decorated so nicely too. It was perfect!

these are the taxes!!!
Taxes: $11,222.10
Village Tax:$11,222.00

I can't imagine over 22K in taxes for a townhouse. That's insane!

I wonder if that is a misprint

townhouses are so expensive here - you can get a bigger house in that town for less than that.

the village tax is something you should ignore when you look at that. so the real taxes are 11K, NOT 22K

why would you ignore the village tax?? Even in a townhouse you are still responsible for the village tax.

I think the taxes are a misprint too...there is no way the village tax is almost the same as the town on a TH.

Townhouse living is awesome, I loved it.
I miss all the services like clean gutters, powerwashing, snow removal.

I agree that its very silly but some people like the idea of not maintaining a home.

There are definite pro's and con's to living in a town house. it is really nice not to have to maintain the outside, or worry about landscaping. Usually there are additional facilities such as pools, playgrounds, tennis courts, fitness center, rec room etc. Also, it is nice if it is a gated community to have the additional security.

The cons are not owning the land, not having as much privacy as you would in a house. Shared backyards. And, your neighbors are in your business a lot more. But I really enjoyed living in a town house.

Total misprint. If you scan to the bottom you will see: Taxes W/ Star $10,316

Still really high but not $22k.

I'm not far from those - they're pretty close to (east) Main St.

No outside maintenance sounds pretty good to me! Only $175/month sounds great!

and for the area - it's pretty comparable to housing prices (for the size and age), actually maybe a deal, but unfortunately any new(ish) house/TH has crazy taxes!

I think with a townhouse you do own the land that's under it. Isn't that what makes it different than a condo?
