Baby Boomers find amazing home options at Inverlyn Lake Estates
By Lucas on Dec 23, 2015
The media tends to spend a lot of time focusing on the struggles of first-time buyers - we do it frequently as well - but one demographic that is once again very important for the new home industry is Baby Boomers. That’s why it’s so interesting to see builders like Reid’s Heritage Homes going the extra mile to accommodate these types of buyers.
As Boomers age, the kids have left the nest, and it becomes unnecessary to live in a 3,000+ square foot home, they are looking for opportunities to downsize. Of course, the condo market has been a great place to turn, but not every senior or soon-to-be senior wants to live in a high-rise or an urban environment.
That’s where Reid’s Heritage Homes’ Inverlyn Lake Estates comes in. This Kincardine community features a selection of detached bungalows, ranging from 1,487 to 1,767 square feet. These two- and three-bedroom models start from the upper $200,000s, so if you live in a 3,000+ square feet, there’s a good chance you’re saving a good sum of money downsizing at Inverlyn Lake Estates.
The bungalows of Inverlyn Lake Estates have all the high quality features and finishes that you expect from a top rated builder, such as engineered hardwood flooring, 9’ main floor ceilings, ceramic tile, oak handrails on the staircases, and ENERGY STAR qualified construction and design. It’s the extra add ons that make the community stand out for Boomers, or any other buyers that may have some sort of disability.
There are a number of mobility and safety features that can be added at no extra charge, including plans with no stairs or steps, wider doors and hallways, wheelchair sized ensuites, retractable faucets, lever style door handles, lowered windows, and much more. In fact, most features can be lowered, like the vanities, light switches, and shelving, just to make everything easier to access and use.
Some additional add ons for mobility and safety that may require an additional charge include grab bars in the bathroom, lower installation of kitchen sinks, railings in the hallways, and a strobe light smoke and carbon dioxide detector.
So, it’s very easy for a Boomer to purchase at Inverlyn Lake Estates and plan for the future, without needing to sacrifice a whole lot of space and possessions. Plus, the Kincardine neighbourhood offers a wealth of amenities to allow you to live a healthy and active lifestyle.
The Community Centre features a gathering hall, games room, card room, exercise facility, family occasion room, and a kitchen for hosting events. The community is also minutes away from the sandy beaches of Lake Huron, so boating and other water sports are always an option during the warmer months.
There are approximately 90 acres of woodland surrounding Inverlyn Lake Estates, which offers a network of trails, ideal for hiking, cycling, cross country skiing, jogging and bird watching. To complement the greenery, there is a dog park and unleashed dog run, and Ainsdale Golf Club features 18 holes of scenic fairways.
