thats a tough one, especially being close to bars and shops and walking to things.
I can tell you I made the same decision about a year ago. I could of bought a townhouse close to a spot I go often to eat and booze, however I thought about it and figured Id probably regret not having a house without neighbors and being able to do what I wanted to it.
A year later im still very happy with my decision. im adding a bigger back porch on and an outside kitchen.
You have to think what you want. do you plan on getting married and having kids? house would probably be a better decision
