Townhome Living, a Nice Alternative

Townhome living can be convenient for many reasons, and appealing to many types of buyers.

The young professional with not much time for yard work who appreciates a spacious home with a garage. The empty-nesting couple that still need the space for the kids to come visit, but want to have more flexibility with travel and time. A family that wants to be part of a community that can be fun for the kids, with friends at the complex pool or on the playground.

From Alamo to Livermore, here are some available townhomes that are roomy and have garages—but no lawn to mow!
