Jerry Kline (left), Realtor with Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland, helps Jody and Chandler Rhodes celebrate the purchase of their new-construction home, located in New Market, Maryland’s, Lake Linganore community.

Chandler & Jody Rhodes had had enough of suburban townhouse living. Jody, in particular, longed to live in a more rural setting, to more fully indulge his love of the outdoors. The busy couple and their two young children also were clearly outgrowing their existing home.

Chandler and Jody recently contacted Jerry Kline to help them sell their three-story townhome in the Piney Orchard section of Odenton, Maryland. Jerry then helped the family locate and purchase a new property some 50 miles away in Frederick County, Maryland.

This home, located in the New Market, Maryland, community of Lake Linganore, was recently purchased for $799,900 by buyer clients represented by Jerry Kline, Realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland.

The Rhodes’ Odenton townhome included a host of attractive updates and unique features. Jerry sold the home in three days – and for the highest price ever paid for a home in The Courts at Piney Orchard. As part of the deal, Jerry also negotiated a rent-back agreement for the sellers, which allowed them to stay in the property after settlement. This helped to make their move to their new home a bit easier.

This home, located at 2421 Winding Ridge Road in Odenton, Maryland, was recently sold by Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland. The home sold for $440,000, the highest price ever paid for a townhome in The Courts at Piney Orchard,

As for their new property, Chandler and Jody purchased a new-construction colonial in the Lake Linganore area of New Market, Maryland. Perched on some 3,700 acres of greenery, Lake Linganore provides access to all kinds of nature-based recreation, including boating, swimming, fishing and more. Homeowners in the Lake Linganore community have access to two private beaches, swimming pools, basketball and tennis courts, a golf course, playgrounds, recreational fields and 30 miles of incredible hiking trails.

The couples’ new home boasts a stone-to-ceiling fireplace, upgraded quartz kitchen counters and cabinets, a master bedroom suite with a huge ceramic-tiled Roman shower, a two-story family room and a first-floor office. Chandler and Jody paid $799,900 for the property, and Jerry convinced the builder to provide the couple with $10,000 in closing cost assistance.

Piney Orchard Townhomes: Are End Units Worth More?

Piney Orchard homes

Yes. $5,499 more, on average.

Since the beginning of 2015, 120 townhomes have sold in the Piney Orchard section of Odenton, Maryland. According to Metropolitan Regional Information Systems (MRIS), the local multiple listing service, 88 of those homes were “interior” units, and 32 were “end” units.

The average sale price of the interior townhomes sold in Piney Orchard during that time was $330,864. The average Piney Orchard end-unit townhome sold for $336,363. That’s a difference of $5,499.

Why would that be?

Many buyers prefer end units to interior units when purchasing a townhome. Among the reasons:

- end units offer more privacy and serenity, because they have only one adjacent neighbor;

- end units often have larger interiors in terms of total square feet;

- with windows on three sides, end units usually allow more natural light inside;

- with a yard on three sides, they offer more outside space to spread out; and

- they sometimes offer more architectural interest, inside and out.

Garages usually increase a home’s value. But curiously, the $5,499 premium buyers have paid for Piney Orchard end units since the beginning of 2015 is not because a greater proportion of the end units had garages.

In fact, the opposite is true: 31 percent of the interior townhomes purchased in Piney Orchard since the beginning of 2015 offered a garage, while only 19 percent of end-unit townhomes did.

The simple fact is that if you want to buy an end-unit townhome in Piney Orchard, expect to pay about $5,000 more for it than you would for an interior townhome. Sales data since the beginning of 2015 shows that the added benefits of owning an end unit make them worth more.
