Heritage Square South Townhomes

There's 2 terrific townhome communities in Vintage Vegas the I have to consider my "favorites". Braewood Heritage and it's sister community of Heritage Square South. (There's also Heritage Sq. NORTH but I'm not a big fan of it).

They were built in 1971 to 1973 at Desert Inn and Pecos Road (braewood) and Sandhill and Twain (HHS). The two are very alike in most respects except that Braewood became gated in the late 80's +-. Floor plans are almost identical except for the owner suite closet and bath configuration.

There were 4 basic configurations. The "all down" was single story with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths and about 1300 sf. There's a "half up" model with a huge 3rd bedroom above the garage, coming in at about 1700 sf, and a "full up" with either 2 huge bedrooms, or 2 bedrooms and a full 3rd bath. The "Full Up" models ranged from 1920 to 2303 sf.

In all cases, it's an "L" shaped property, and hidden behind the garages, each has a very nice and totally private back yard. As in most new homes, the backyard space was delivered unfinished from the builder, and with over 30 years of time to finish them off, you can imagine that each and every one is as unique as every other back yard in Vintage Vegas.

Most of us love these because every property is different from the front exposure. Colors, textures, mansard roof materials, landscapes are each unique and fun. I don't think there's a single duplication in either complex.

Additionally, both complexes have been exceptionally well run and organized over the years, have saved money for future expenses, thereby having very low HOA fees and never a special assessment.

Currently, there's 24 units for sale ranging for 209,000 to 306,000. AND there's 9 units under contract for one of the best listings to contracts ratios of any neighborhood in ALL of Las Vegas.

So if you know anyone that wants all the space of a single family home, doesn't want to maintain a front yard, wants a private backyard space, doesn't want to look "just like the neighbors" etc. then townhouse living in the Heritages's just might be right for them. Have them call me. I'd be happy to show them this great lifestyle.

one of the last

"Gaffers and Sattler" original ovens. I found it in one of the Braewood Heritage Townhouses I was showing to John and Zoe, (who are moving into Vintage Vegas from Ann Road and Decatur).

The clock on the oven was so wonderful, I couldn't help myself and they patiently waited while I ran out to the car for the camera. (Of course, I didn't realize I'd end up in the picture, and as you can see, I always wear bright primary colors!).

Click on any picture on VVV to see a full screen image. The clock is SO classic 60's!

Non Sequitur

from the latin "it does not follow" (yes, I had to look it up). But it describes one of the funny things I saw when showing homes to a client in Braewood Heritage yesterday.

I have a feeling the whole in the drywall from the old fan was bigger than the base of this wonderful stylistic fan. So let's just cover it with any old thing we could find in the fan department of HD/LOWES.

We love when people mix styles (usually) but space age modern and victorian rosette?
