Townhome-style apartments split the difference between a regular garden apartment and a rented house. Most units here are two or three stories, with private entrances instead of a shared hallway, attached or nearby garages, and little to no upstairs neighbor noise since you're not stacked between other units on all sides. In Grapevine, you'll find these communities clustered near Highway 121, around Grapevine Mills, and tucked into the quieter residential pockets closer to Lake Grapevine and the historic Main Street area. We've identified 29 communities in this category, ranging from smaller boutique properties to larger developments with resort-style pools and dog parks.
What to look for before signing a lease
Square footage and layout matter more here than in a typical flat, since you're often paying a premium for the extra privacy and storage. Check whether the garage is attached, detached, or just a covered carport, and ask directly about sound transfer between shared walls (townhomes still share at least one wall with a neighbor). Look closely at maintenance turnaround times, pet policies and fees, and whether utilities like trash and water are billed separately or rolled into rent. Walk the property at different times of day if you can, since parking and street noise near 121 can vary a lot by community.
How we score these communities
Our rankings weigh unit condition, management responsiveness, amenity quality, value for the rent charged, and resident feedback patterns over time. The full breakdown of how we weight and verify each factor is on our methodology page.
