Couples Have Spoken: “We Need Our Personal Space”
Young couples moving in together are usually excited about what lies ahead, but combining two households can also leave people with questions. How will we get along? Will we both have room for our belongings? Will we be able to have space for hobbies and down time? What about a man-cave? A crafting room? What if we have different work schedules and need extra space to get ready in the morning without disturbing the other person?
Experts say moving into a townhome can be the ideal choice for couples setting up a new home together. A key feature is a spare bedroom, which can be used for things like an office, a separate space for clothes, or a “make-up and hair” room. As you think about the best spot for making a home together, keep these additional benefits in mind.
Multi-Levels for Leisure
Because townhomes have separate floors, the night owl of the couple can listen to music downstairs while preparing a late-night snack in the modern kitchen, while the early riser sleeps comfortably upstairs. And a full finished basement means there is plenty of room for workout equipment, an entertainment area for watching sports and movies, or a gathering space for playing games with friends. For those who need some quiet time, the bay window on the first floor provides a perfect, cozy reading nook.
Patio Pleasures
Most couples are not looking to spend all their time together indoors, so having comfortable outdoor living space is a must! A spacious patio can give couples a relaxing location to drink a cup of morning coffee or to unwind with a glass of wine after a long day. If you’re a gardener (or have always wanted to be one), it’s good to have plenty of room for plants, flowers, and an herb garden. You can dash out to your patio to grab fresh herbs for cooking in your large, well-appointed kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances, touchscreen Samsung electric range, and multi-cycle dishwasher.
Community Perks
Even the best couples need space to stretch and escape the confines of their space from time to time. A townhome community is a great place to get some fresh air and take a walk around the nearest courtyard or on the walking track. At The Charles at Bexley, you can take advantage of our on-site fitness center, where you and your other half can choose to exercise (alone or together) without having to drive miles away to a gym. Couples with dogs have easy access to our dog park—this can be a great way to make new friends (for you and your pet!).
When you’re looking for some community, remember that a generous floor plan allows for easy entertaining, and The Charles community has activities and events that make for great date nights within easy reach of your home.
The right place for a couple is a home where you can enjoy time together comfortably and still maintain your sense of self and peace of mind. Is a townhome at The Charles at Bexley that right place for you? Visit our site and then schedule a tour!
