Four Seasons at Troy Hills is a gated 55+ community in Parsippany, New Jersey, made up of townhouse-style homes built in 2007, and every unit feels roomy with about 2,200 square feet, big open floor plans, and dramatic high ceilings like the two-story foyer or dining room with a large Palladian window that lets in a lot of daylight, and some homes even have a loft area up above that looks over the main living space, which can be used for a home office, sitting area, or storage, and the main bedrooms tend to be on the first floor with their own big bathrooms, including jacuzzi tubs, stall showers, and double vanities, plus big walk-in closets for easy storage, so the main living's all on one floor if someone prefers. Each home usually comes with things like attached finished garages for two cars, extra parking spaces on blacktop driveways, and a private deck or patio out back, most with woodland views, and the homes themselves have custom shades or blinds, hardwood floors, upgraded designer kitchens with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, cherry- or white-finish 42-inch cabinets, and eat-in areas or breakfast bars for convenience, and the living rooms have gas fireplaces framed by oak mantles and marble-a cozy spot on cold nights. The buildings use stucco, stone, and vinyl siding on the outside, and they have thermal windows, ceiling fans, recessed and track lighting, and a wall-mounted instant hot water heater, so daily living's comfortable year-round, with forced hot air heat and central air. Every unit includes little touches like recessed lighting, smoke and CO detectors, and even a built-in security system, and most places are fully handicap accessible, with laundry right there on the first floor next to the garage entry for ease.
The community takes care of exterior maintenance, snow removal, ground care, landscaping, and even interior common area cleaning, so you don't have to worry about much outside or inside, since the maintenance fee also covers amenities, building insurance, capital improvement fund, and common area utilities like garbage collection, public water, cable TV, and fiber optic internet. Four Seasons at Troy Hills doesn't have a swimming pool, even though the name might make you think otherwise, but it does have other spots for gathering and getting outdoors, like a scenic pond with a walkway, a wooded park area, walking trails, a gazebo, and landscaped grounds with mature trees, plus a clubhouse with different rooms and organized activities, a fitness center, a library, arts and crafts space, game rooms, and gathering spaces for community events or simple social time. There are group music or exercise programs, an on-site dining room that serves all-day meals-including special choices for allergies or diabetics-plus a kitchen with chef-prepared food for those who want that, or you can use your own full kitchen in your unit if that's easier.
Residents here get a range of care services based on what they need, from help with daily activities and medication management to meal and laundry help, personal care, and even memory care options, all with specialized options, and there's always a 24-hour call system in place for safety. Four Seasons at Troy Hills always has someone on call at the guardhouse, and uses a doorman service in buildings for extra security, and healthcare and wellness support is available within the community, including help with planning for specific care needs. Residents can also get respite care for a short stay or when caregivers need a break, and extra services like housekeeping, move-in coordination, dry cleaning, family support, or concierge service.
Nearby, you'll find bus stops that go to Newark Liberty International Airport, and several highways like Routes 80, 280, 287, and 46 for trips to local shopping centers, restaurants, or places to play tennis, golf, or walk outside, including parks and golf clubs right down the road. Water, sewer, and electric utilities are public, and although tenants pay for some items like electricity, gas, and repairs insurance, taxes and water are included in the rent. Parking's easy, with multiple options including garages and regular spots by the homes, and everything's designed for a relaxed, low-maintenance lifestyle for active adults, with both privacy and opportunities for social activities right on site.
