Town Homes – Summit at RR
I had the chance to attend a broker open house at the Summit at River Run and was very impressed. You get a lot for your money. 3 story townhomes with approximately 3,000 square feet in the $390s to low $400s.
Townhouse Kitchen
The most exciting news was that the next townhomes will be built ready to have an elevator in the unit. Peachtree said this was a $32-$34k upgrade to have the elevator. Those will sell great. They will also be along the 16th fairway of River Run Country Club.
Townhouse Master Bedroom
Single family homes are also available from the mid-$400s.
