Are you trying to decide what type of home is best for you?
Townhouses are an excellent choice for many homebuyers! Depending on individual circumstances, townhouses tend to attract young families, retirees looking to downsize, or young professionals for a few reasons. They are typically less expensive than investing in a single-family house, many have multiple bedrooms and gathering areas, and they often include small, HOA-maintained yards. Though you may associate booming metropolitan areas with townhouses, there are many welcoming townhouse communities all across the Midlands of South Carolina. Here’s a few you may want to explore:

Pennington Square: Located near I-77, great schools, Fort Jackson, and fun dining and shopping areas, Pennington Square is an appealing townhome community in Southeast Columbia. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, with many townhomes featuring multi-level, open floor layouts, fenced in backyards, and upscale features such as hardwood floors and crown molding.
Elders Pond: This beautiful townhome community has so much to offer! Close to the Lake Carolina area, Elders Pond not only has affordable townhouses available for you to call “home,” but its residents have access to a variety of benefits including a pristine pool, a fitness center, and close proximity to nature trails.
