Gramercy Park of Inver Grove Heights sits on a 10.5-acre landscaped site at 5688 Brent Avenue and serves people aged 55 and older who want the comfort and security of a cooperative community, which simply means the residents own and govern their homes together rather than rent them. The building has three floors and 111 units, with a choice between one-bedroom and two-bedroom homes, some with one bath, others with one and a half or even two baths, and each home has walk-in closets with ceiling lights, private balconies, individually controlled heating and cooling, and self-cleaning ovens, microwaves, frost-free refrigerators, garbage disposals, and dishwashers. Some homes have in-unit laundry hookups while others use shared laundry rooms, and everyone gets HD cable through Comcast.
Residents park their cars in the heated underground garage or keep extra belongings in dry storage spaces, and there are secure building entries and a smoke-free policy to help keep things safe and healthy. Gramercy Park puts a big focus on comfort by giving access to a fireside main lobby, craft room, fitness center, hobby room, library, party room with kitchen, workshop, and a billiards room. There are also outdoor BBQ grills, individual gardens, guest suites for visitors, on-site maintenance and management, and WiFi. Members take part in fun member-run activities like bingo nights, cards and games, crafts, potlucks, social outings, happy hours, billiards, puzzles, and workshops, so there's always something to do if you want company, and transportation is available for ADA-certified residents who need it.
Care services run Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm, with several types of support for various health needs, and the place sits close to shopping, churches, golf courses, and medical centers-Target, Home Depot, and Inver Wood Golf Course are all nearby, and both private tours for newcomers and secure building access mean people can come see the place before making any decision. The community has several floor plans and people say the surroundings are welcoming, quiet, and relaxing, so people who like to garden, read, do crafts, or just spend time quietly may find it a comfortable fit as they get older.
