Westwood buyers are turning to the convenience of low-maintenance quality townhomes, where all they have to do is turn the key.

The lifestyle on offer at Westwood has been an obvious drawcard for many purchasers. Wherever you are situated across either of the Westwood precincts, you are close to green open space and parklands, schools, and shops.

This, along with the sense of community that has already emerged with residents, makes Westwood the preferred master-planned development for a wide demographic.

Once you have made your decision to invest in Westwood for your future home, the next step is to decide which style of home is most suitable for your lifestyle and financial situation.

Townhomes are a popular option for a variety of reasons, particularly appealing to first home buyers and downsizers.

What is the difference between a townhome vs. house & land?

A townhome is an attached, multi-storey dwelling, sharing at least one wall with an adjacent property. It has its own entrance and front/backyard space, though this is usually smaller than a typical detached house.

A house & land package, on the other hand, is a detached dwelling (think of your regular house) that shares no walls and is surrounded by land on its own lot.

These are often bigger homes, perhaps for a large or growing family, and are usually designed to be site-specific to maximise the assets of lot sites throughout the estate.

Both townhome and house & land purchases at Westwood include both the dwelling and the land in the price.

Why are townhomes so popular?

Townhomes are perfect for first home buyers and young families who are looking for a hassle-free homeownership process and a fixed price.

Their low maintenance also makes them a favourite for downsizers.

The townhomes at Westwood are planned with quality-built forms and affordable prices top of mind. With the price range generally under the $600k threshold, this also places first home buyers under the stamp duty exemption.

Designed for both comfort and convenience, townhomes make for an incredibly smooth move-in process with all the details of the homes – including flooring, blinds, landscaping, fencing, fixtures and fittings – pre-planned and included in a fixed price.

Westwood partner with some of Australia’s most established builders to deliver architecturally designed and quality townhomes, including Sienna Homes, Metricon, Porter Davis, SOHO Living, Nostra Homes, Verv Group and Homebuyers Centre (ABN Group).
