If low maintenance appeals to you, a condo town house or apartment might make you feel right at home. Williamston has it all!

The city of Williamston is made up of neighborhoods. Some areas feature larger, newer homes. Other neighborhoods are known for carefully-maintained or restored Victorian homes. "Gingerbread" trim, front porches, gabled roofs and turrets all characterize the comfortable Victorian family homes and add to he charm of living in the city, or merely strolling its streets. In downtown Williamston, many owners of the beautiful Victorian buildings have made significant investments in the second and third stories of their buildings, creating unique, modern apartments with features such as high ceilings, arched windows, lofts and modern amenities.

Throughout the townships that surround the city, subdivisions offer homes ranging from smaller one-stories to large colonial and Victorian-style homes with four or more bedrooms, family rooms and multi-car garages. Country homes on ten or more acres are common, allowing residents to have lots of elbow room, extensive gardens and farmlands, or own livestock and horses on their own properties

For those who wish to live without the hassles of home maintenance, the Williamston area offers many condominium, apartment and town house options. There are senior complexes offering an affordable alternative for elderly citizens. Manufactured housing communities are also available.
