Newcastle townhouses for sale

Townhouses in Newcastle arrived with the Port and the north expansion. The Port of Newcastle mixes freehold and condominium rows dating from the 2000s and the 2010s, with garages, small yards and, in some blocks, lake or marina views, often on private roads with a common-element fee. North of King Avenue the current subdivisions offer freehold rows around 20 to 24 feet wide, each with a garage, three bedrooms and a basement below, plus a few back-to-back rows and stacked buildings near the Highway 2 frontage. The village core has almost none; a couple of older rows sit near the west-side plaza. The buyers are first-timers after the village and a garage, and downsizers who want less lawn but not a condo. Confirm whether the row is freehold, freehold on a common-element condominium, or a full condominium, since fees and lender treatment differ; check the parking count, because a short driveway rarely takes two cars; and in the Port ask about wind, snow drift on the laneways and the private-road maintenance budget.
