Senior Housing

As the baby boomer generation eases into retirement age, it will find that Richfield is a very friendly place for seniors. Those who have reached the magic age of 55 and over have hundreds of homes to choose from in locations that are convenient to everything, and that have amenities and views that make them the perfect place to call home when keeping up a single-family dwelling is no longer desirable.

In the heart of Richfield, the over 55 crowd can choose from Lake Shore Drive Condominiums (178 homes), Village Shores (166 homes), Woodlake Point (157 homes) or Gramercy Park Cooperative at Lake Shore Drive (160 homes).

The Gramercy Park Cooperative is unique in that its member owners enjoy the tax advantages and growing equity of home ownership, but enjoy maintenance-free convenience. The Gramercy Park Cooperative, directly across the street from the Wood Lake Nature Center, offers its members spectacular views of the 150-acre nature park as well as trails for hiking and cross-country skiing. Plus, it is within walking distance to the heart of Richfield’s best restaurants, shops, pharmacies, supermarkets, banks and other services. Its members marvel at the exceptional soundproofing provided by its concrete and steel construction and praise the peace-of-mind it offers as well. The eight available models of 1-, 2- or 3-bedroom units feature washers, dryers, heated underground parking, and even a hot-water car wash.

Many of the members are former Richfield homeowners who are delighted that they can stay in Richfield while reducing the workload of a single-family dwelling, and still have room to continue doing crafts or woodworking.
