8 Reasons to Choose a Townhome

February 19, 2026

As real estate development continues to grow in the DFW area, townhomes in Prosper TX are emerging as an attractive alternative to single-family homes. Townhomes have several advantages that make them a great option for a range of buyers.

Here are 8 reasons to choose a townhome for your next home:

Low maintenance

One of the major perks of townhome living is the ease of caring for the property. Front yard landscaping and some exterior maintenance is handled for you when you live in a townhome community. The common areas are professionally maintained, ensuring that you always have an attractive, well-kept neighborhood.

More affordable

Townhomes are more affordable to build than single-family homes because they have shared walls and smaller lots. The savings is passed on to you when you buy a townhome. In some communities, like Dominion at Brookhollow in Prosper TX, the garages are the only parts that share walls. You can have all the privacy and space of a single-family home at a lower price point.

Efficient layout

A big advantage of townhomes is their efficient floor plan. Two story townhomes make good use of vertical space while having a smaller footprint than a single-family home. Townhome designers are careful to create floor plans that provide maximum living space and versatility.

Sound investment

Just like single-family homes, townhomes generally appreciate in value. By owning a townhome instead of renting, you can build equity and take advantage of the growth in home prices over time.

Community amenities

Many townhome communities have on-site amenities such as walking trails, play areas and sports courts. This makes it easier to be active and enjoy your free time outdoors without having to drive anywhere.

Neighborhood feel

It’s easy to get to know your neighbors in a townhome community. You’ll meet them naturally as you stroll on the sidewalks or walking paths, use the sports courts or take your kids to the playground. The children in a townhome community will attend school together, adding another layer of friendship to the neighborhood.
