Most of the townhomes here span multiple stories, and are sited on large lots that have their own private yards or garden areas. Bay windows are common, and many of the homes have been constructed within the past decade. The market therefore boasts a higher than usual number of structures with energy efficient features, from triple pane windows to smart appliances and automatic lights. Vinyl siding with a combination of brick or stonework often is employed on the exterior.

The interiors favor brand-new finishes with wainscoting, tile flooring in the foyer, and textured ceilings. The kitchens are usually a showcase of luxury, with hardwood floors, brand new appliances, and beautifully varnished wooden cabinets that are mounted above granite countertops. Recessed lighting is embedded in the ceiling, while the island is traditionally spotlighted by custom lighting fixtures. These fixtures can recall an earlier period in time, or be designed to embody the latest design trends. In either case, the islands themselves usually seat between three to six people, and often have plenty of storage space beneath the gleaming marble countertop.

Throughout the home, ample banks of windows provide both spectacular views and an influx of natural light, helping to brighten the interior. The primary living space is generally set directly across from the kitchen and dining area, and usually terminates in a set of sliding glass doors that open onto a majestic exterior balcony or deck. Closer to the heart of downtown, these balconies usually span the length of one side of the home, and provide enough room for a small party or a set of patio furniture, including a table and chairs. In homes that are set closer to the river or the natural woodlands, the deck may expand out into the yard, and have a set of stairs that allows residents to descend and access nature directly.

The bedrooms in these homes tend to have high ceilings and roomy adjacent closets. In the master bedroom, an enormous master bathroom is common. This space will typically have not only a full size shower stall that is surrounded by glass panels, but also a stand alone bathtub that is positioned underneath a window. This bathtub is large enough to comfortably sit one person if not two, and often has a large ledge perfect for arranging objects such as a house plant or series of candles.
