And what is even more unique about the Center Grove neighborhood is that it mostly consists of attached townhomes, which are basically big homes split into two separate residences and managed by the 2 owners together like a mini homeowner’s association. This is the common theme specifically in Center Grove, and most townhomes are around 2,400 square feet in size. But…as I mentioned earlier…finding a free-standing home with a 2-car garage in Center Grove is nearly impossible.
