New in Maryland: Parklands

NV Homes is building 180 garage town homes at Parklands in Gaithersburg, Md., a planned community with a swimming pool, a clubhouse, tennis and basketball courts and plans for a town center.

Each home in this Montgomery County community will include a brick front, a brick stoop, fiber-cement siding, professional landscaping and a two-car garage with carriage-style doors.

Each town home has three finished levels, with three bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. Standard features include ceramic tile flooring in the foyer; 9-foot ceilings on the main and upper levels; crown moldings; oversized trim around the baseboards and windows; 42-inch cabinets, hardwood flooring, granite counters, a pantry and recessed lighting in the center-island kitchen; ceramic tile flooring in the baths; granite countertops and a double-sink vanity in the master bath; and gas heat.

The Vanderbilt model has approximately 1,840 finished square feet, with base prices from the low $410,000s. Homeowner association fees are $60 per month.

This home has a lower-level entrance into a foyer with a coat closet and an open doorway into a recreation room. The lower level also has a powder room and a combined mudroom and laundry room with access to the garage. Buyers can opt for a study and full bath in place of the recreation room and powder room.

The main level includes a front living room with optional built-in bookshelves and an optional gas fireplace.

At the back of this home are the center-island kitchen, breakfast area and family room or a country kitchen. Buyers can add a fireplace to the family room.

Upstairs, the master suite has two walk-in closets and a private bath. A luxury bath with a soaking tub and separate shower is optional. Two more bedrooms and a second full bath complete this level.

Buyers can add an 8-foot extension to this home on all three levels.
