When I was asked today by a truly great realtor and super ‘blog Queen’ <li><a href="http://raincityguide.com">Ardell</a></li>, what I thought of a new town home community sprouting up, so, I might as well share my thoughts here. Well, at first glance for the person visiting here from another area of the US of A, it may sound expensive to pay $870,000 for a non-single family residence. <br /><br />Oh quite contraire, as time will tell. These beautifully designed Row houses, with brick exteriors and contemporary styling are in the heart of Bellevue. These homes are designed to emphasize an urban lifestyle w/nicely landscaped courtyards, an extension of McCormick Park and a short stroll to the growing amenities that are evolving in downtown Bellevue. Approximately 2,000 square feet of cutting edge interiors, these 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath town homes complete with underground two stall parking as well as 2 guest stalls, will be one of the best downtown real estate investments to be seen in the next few years. <br /><br />Does it seem steep? Sure, just as a Medina waterfront property seemed outrageous when selling at $100,000 back in the 1950’s and is now however selling 40, 50 and in some cases over 100 times that amount. More to come on the changes to Bellevue in the coming weeks. Bellevue is coming of age!!Stanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10022520409712437538noreply@blogger.com2
