No one looks forward to the aches and pains of aging but just like all stages in life there are perks to entering into the 55 and over category. While we may not consider ourselves "seniors" if you are 55 and over in Connecticut, and across the country, there are discounts you may be missing out on! There is not a universal age at which these discounts kick in so you will have to do you research if you are 55 and over in Connecticut, and other states, to see what age you must be to benefit from specific senior discounts. If you are 55 and over in Connecticut don't just consider discounts at local restaurants and department stores; in the state of Connecticut you may even receive credits or exemptions on taxes!
Another benefit many people 55 and over in Connecticut are taking advantage of is age restricted living. These communities are growing in popularity over the past few years. 55 and over communities should not be confused with assisted living or nursing care. These communities are built around the active 55 and over lifestyle and while many offer single level living and are (or easily modified to be) handicap accessible, they do not employ medical staff or provide assistance for every day living. If you are 55 and Over in Connecticut and considering age restricted living a great place to start is Pond Spring Village located in beautiful Beacon Falls, CT. Pond Spring Village offers spacious duplex style units with 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The master suite includes a private bath and the second bedroom includes a walk-out deck! All units come with a full basement (some are walk-out) with an option to finish for additional living space. Our duplexes do include a one car garage; however, new and exciting floor plans are soon to come and will include a two car garage! If you are considering communities which are 55 and over in Connecticut feel free to stop by one of our open houses held every Saturday and Sunday from 12-3 pm. You can also contact Linda Mayfield or Ken Shove for additional information or a private showing!
