The Elms of Hanover sits off Main Street in Hanover, MA, and has 51 condos built in 2004 for people aged 55 and older, so you're looking at a quieter and friendlier place with well-kept grounds and an easy feeling. These townhomes and condos come with two bedrooms and two or three bathrooms, usually around 2,300 square feet, so folks get more room to move about, and you'll find features like attached one-car garages, granite countertops in the kitchens, stainless appliances, and for some units, fireplaces. Every unit's got a kitchenette, private bathrooms, laundry and housekeeping options, plenty of storage, and some have extra spaces upstairs you can use as a den, home office, or maybe an exercise room if you like. The primary bedrooms are right on the first floor and have both a whirlpool tub and a walk-in shower, which is handy for anyone who doesn't want to fuss with stairs too much.
You're never far from something to do since there's a big living room with hardwood floors and a gas fireplace, a three-season room, an outdoor deck, and private balconies if you want some fresh air or a quiet moment. Folks like the swimming pool and the fitness center, and there's a wellness room with a spa, plus walking paths where you can stretch your legs, and you'll always notice the landscaped grounds, which are nice for an early morning stroll or evenings with neighbors. Some spaces are unfinished, like basements, so if you like storage or want a project, you get that too.
The Elms offers a sense of community with daily and resident-run activities-things like games, movies, and arts programs-and you've got a game room, library, and a spot for crafts. Folks who want extra help can get assisted living services, like medication help, meal prep, a 24-hour call system, and someone to help with daily routines if needed. Dining services come with allergy-sensitive options, restaurant-style seating, help for special diets, and meals throughout the day, so you don't have to cook if you'd rather not.
Transportation and parking help folks get around town, and there's easy access to nearby schools if you've got grandkids visiting. Each unit comes with Wi-Fi, cable TV, and air conditioning, and there's help with move-in adjustments, laundry, and a concierge for the little things that pop up. People here enjoy their independence, but there's enough support and plenty to do if you want it, and the quiet, friendly setting in Hanover's 02339 zip code gives it a calm, settled feel, which is what most folks around here come to appreciate.
