55+ Living in Wendell Falls

When dreaming of your next home, you may imagine a place that allows you to go on adventures while also acting as an oasis of its own. While searching for the home for the next phase of your life in, you’ll want to consider how your needs and priorities will change. Read to learn what to look for when purchasing a home in your 50s or older and what Wendell Falls’ 55+ community, Encore, has to offer.

Housing

When looking for a new home, you’ll want to consider what you may need in years to come to avoid renovations or having to move again. There are a few features in a home that can make life in your senior years easier. Consider looking for a low maintenance home with minimal steps, accessible appliances and shelving and a guest bedroom for family to stay in, especially if you plan on welcoming anyone long-term.

If you’re 55+ and looking to join an amazing community, Encore by David Weekley Homes, an integrated new-home lifestyle offering for 55+ adults in Wendell Falls, may be for you.

Encore offers many low-maintenance, luxurious, one and two-story plans from David Weekley’s Classic Series and Tradition Series. Each of these floor plans feature two to four bedrooms, open floor plans and expanded outdoor living areas for entertaining, with the yardwork taken care of.

Fully decorated models of the Northwind, Wallridge and Moorefield floorplans are available for touring.
