Exploring apartments and townhouses with Cedar Woods

Written by Cedar Woods | 26 April 2023

For first-home buyers, investors, empty nesters and upgraders, purchasing a newly built home is an option packed with appeal. But when choosing your new home, it’s essential to do your homework – particularly when it comes to understanding what type of home suits you (now and into the future) and seeking out an established developer with a trusted reputation.

In this article, we explore the benefits of apartments and townhouses and delve into what you can expect when choosing a Cedar Woods property for your next home or investment.

Apartments vs Townhouses – what’s right for you?

Choosing the right property primarily comes down to your budget, your needs and your desired lifestyle. While Cedar Woods offers everything from apartments to house and land packages, here, we place the spotlight on the benefits of buying a new apartment or townhouse:

Apartments

If you spend a lot of time out and about and want a base close to the action, or are sick of dedicating your weekends to home maintenance, you should consider an apartment. 
Their compact size may mean embracing minimalism when it comes to your possessions, but you’ll be free to focus on enjoying life rather than being bogged down with home-related chores.

Apartments can also make an affordable investment or first step on the property ladder.

Townhouses

With a little more room for outdoor living, a more spacious floor plan, and your own private entry, townhouses provide home buyers with a happy medium between apartment living and stand-alone homes. In some instances, you’ll be able to choose from a variety of floorplans or facades – particularly when buying within a residential land community.

Townhouses located within new purpose-built neighbourhoods or established communities are also attractive to investors.

Cedar Woods – a solid choice

Choosing an industry-leading company that has been developing properties and creating thriving communities across Australia since 1987 takes a lot of the unknowns and stress out of buying a new apartment or townhouse. But don’t just take our word for it; here’s what our homeowners have to say:

“I would definitely recommend Cedar Woods to a friend; the process has been absolutely fantastic. Gardenia apartments hit the settlement date they originally said they would 12 months prior to settlement, and we were never in the dark around the stages of the process.”
