Townhome Living, Pomme Frites On Speed Dial
Ok, if you could pick the perfect place to downsize, and don’t want people living on top of you, what might you want? Yeah yeah yeah, smaller square footage but all the amenities of your primary home –large kitchen, master, closets. Solid construction with high energy efficients, check. Zero maintenance but some landscaping so you can breathe in plants and conifers, not concrete; low home association dues in a place where you can ditch the cars in the two-car garage and walk to some of the best dining and shopping in town not to mention hike, bike or jog the Katy Trail.
Try Highland Gates on Katy Trail. Buyers are flocking to the open town homes at 4608 Abbott Avenue at Knox Street, 2400 to 3200 perfect square feet priced from $850,000 to $995,000. And they are selling. I know they are selling. Each unit is a three-story town home with soundproof firewall in-between, 26 units planned for the corner property that backs right up to the Katy Trail and Toulouse, which will undoubtedly be happy to deliver a few orders of those famous fries toute suite! Run up the stairs, run on the Katy, and eat as many pomme frites as your heart desires: life at Highland Gates is healthy. Marketed by Kyle Crews & The Urban Team for Allie Beth Allman.

It’s a great property. I got the sales info from the developers and Allie Beth Allman last year before they started construction. Needless to say, it was tempting. If I really wanted to move just 3 blocks away and take on a bigger mortgage, I would, but I won’t.
I would love a townhome like that but so many seem to be shoved up against a fast food place or a parking lot. And my price range is uh, somewhat lower….. still maybe more and more nicer townhomes/condos will appear, I’m certainly looking
Jen: there may be a couple in my community up for sale now or in the very near future.
4411 McKinney Ave. Prices range in the $300-350s usually. Across the street at 4412 is a more modern style community with museum finish walls, and prices are slightly higher there.
We also have security camera monitoring throughout the property, so it is a little better protected than most.
