The 1,484 square-foot, two-story Dunham offers a charming covered front entry that leads to a spectacular two-story foyer and family room. The Dunham features a beautiful kitchen, a master suite with a large walk-in closet and an intimate private garden bath, and nicely oversized secondary bedrooms served by a full bath. An attached two-car garage is also included.

The Dunham model available for immediate delivery is priced at $175,870.

Emerald Bay's townhomes also feature wall-to-wall carpeting (per plan), designer lighting fixtures, partial stone exteriors, furniture-quality kitchen cabinets, decorator countertops, stainless steel sinks, and GE appliances.
