Hi All,
The past several weeks have been busy. Although we had a few setbacks – running into ledge and unexpected hurdles bringing the sewer line to our property, we finally reached the site with the Town Sewer. While navigating these challenges our site contractor and foundation crew have been working on foundations, internal roads and drainage. We completed the first six house foundations plus two detached garage foundations.
With foundations in, we are gearing up to start framing new homes in the coming month. Additionally, much planning continues as we finalize plans for the ‘Garden Cottage’ buildings and Community Rooms. (Watch for the new plan to be posted soon).
The amenities and concepts for the Community Room continue to take shape. Currently, amenities include a small fitness area and gathering space for get togethers with friends and neighbors. The emphasis will be on “active”. Although Hutchinson Point is an age restricted property – 55 and older, we like to focus on the concept of “active adult” living. The fitness room will be open to all Residents offering a variety of low impact tools to continue your fitness regiment without trekking off to the health club. We have acquired a treadmill, recumbent bike and elliptical machine. These will be housed in the lower level of the Community Room that Residents can access daily. Additional “active” amenities include a couple community gardens where Residents can work together or independently to grow produce, flowers, etc. What a great way to commune with neighbors while connecting with nature? We will continue to explore ways to build activities into Hutchinson Point so that Residents experience the much richer life that can develop from being engaged in community.
