New townhouses are a popular choice for everyone from first-time builders to seasoned investors and property buyers. And there are plenty of reasons why a townhouse in Melbourne is a quality alternative to a regular unit:

• Space. New townhouses offer a lot more space than units, both inside and out. Townhouses’ family sizes are more like a duplex home than an apartment complex.
• Privacy. Your home your entrance. No shared entrances and no shared areas at all. And no one living on top or under you.
• Landscaping. Enjoy your own garden and courtyard.
• Garages. Two-car garages make townhouses perfect for families of all sizes.
• Attractive streetscapes. Adjoining buildings make for a vista that looks great and fits in with the local environment. No multi-storey edifices.
