Townhouse is also landed house. Still need to pay security fees. Some with facilities and some without. For my townhouse i just need to pay around RM100 monthly for maintenance fee.

Yes you are right. If u want affordable landed house without the need to pay RM300++ for condo monthly maintenance fee, then townhouse is your choice. But townhouse is a bit smaller so is only suitable for a small family.

If you have high budget, read post #43.

Similar to any property .... the built-up is based on one's budget.

Depends...if your single storey does not have a good air well...then its super hot.

Also, if you stay in the master bedroom front room, you can smell your neighbor car exhaust.

Most single storeys in Klang valley are quite old, need a lot of upkeep.

The ones in Klang are really big...very long...the kitchen is huge.

This is Lake Cascadia at Taman Tasik Prima Puchong.

I remember visiting the newly built units many years ago either Cascadia or Summer Homes in Tasik Prima. It was a nice concept especially the units which had some lake view.

I just bought a 3 storey townhouse. Ground floor just have a store roon, second floor is living hall + kitchen + a toilet, third floor have 3 bedrooms with attached 3 bathroom. Townhouse is abit small and the parking is small too compare to double storey house but i like the layout and most importantly its affordable, better than condo.

Congrats to you for making this choice.
It is really better compared to an apartment or condo.
everything have downside to it kan

I've visited one such townhouse in Hartamas.
Dia bahagi atas dan bawah. The only thing to take into account, I rasa ambik atas better kot. No need worry leaking problem, and any moving furniture noise from above unit.

I think the only issue with atas is, everytime come back, you'll need to climb the stairs the first before entering home?

Thanks all for your feedback.

Due to the concept of leasehold and some noise issues as feedback from some of the posters here.

I decided not to invest in a townhouse.
