May 2020

While townhouses are often the mark of prestige and elegance, they are, in fact, so much more. A townhouse offers security and privacy, a place of solitude in the middle of a bustling city. Offering multiple levels, a townhouse truly allows for quiet living and without neighbors living above or below you, it’s easy to accomplish an afternoon of productivity or spend an evening relaxing in peace. And if you are living with others, multiple floors allow each person to have more space to themselves. We rounded up the best townhouses on the market—from New York City to Los Angeles, these townhouses offer everything from rooftop gardens to home gyms, private offices, bay views and sun-drenched patios.
