Why Single-family Homes Are Essential in Southern Delaware

Posted by Vineyards by Fernmoor Homes on October 11th, 2019

One of the first decisions homebuyers have to make is to choose the ‘type’ of home to purchase. While condos and apartments are popular, new single-family homes in Southern Delaware are still preferred by many people—from singles to families and even retirees. Are you thinking of buying a single family home? You’re making a great choice. The following reasons will best explain why new single-family homes in Southern Delaware continue to be good investments.

1. They are spacious.

The biggest advantage of single-family homes over apartments, townhomes, and condominiums is that they provide more space. Not only will you get a bigger yard but also spacious interiors. There is room to spread around, and you never have to feel like your entire house is in one room.  

2. They are futureproof.

Condominiums are ideal for single buyers because they tend to be small, cheaper, and easier to maintain. Nevertheless, new single-family homes in Southern Delaware could be a wiser choice, especially if you are someone who is looking to partner up or start a family in the next five or ten years. You will likely outgrow your condo—which means having to move again. When you buy a single-family home, size won't be a problem. If you are finding it too spacious now that you’re still alone, why not turn some of the rooms into an office, a personal gym, or even a large walk-closet? Single-family homes with first-floor master suits are also a great option for active adults.

3. You have total ownership.

When you buy a single-family home, everything that's sitting on and within your lot is considered yours. The house, yard, patio, and the driveway—all these are for you and your family's disposal and enjoyment. Depending on the HOA rules, you may be able to renovate, remodel, and even add a patio or an additional structure in your yard. You can’t do this when you purchase a condominium.

4. You have more privacy.

Unlike the other types of homes, single-family homes are detached units. This means you won't be sharing walls with your neighbors, so you can enjoy more privacy. You can live quietly without worrying about disturbing your neighbors or being disturbed. This is why single-family homes are also ideal for retirees who are looking for a peaceful environment.
