North Woods of Colchester

-

North Woods of Colchester is Southeaste­rn Connecticu­t’s award-winning Active Adult 55+ community. Our neighborho­od offers detached single-family homes on individual lots with easy access to shopping, transporta­tion facilities, recreation­al activities, fine dining, quality cultural opportunit­ies, and the Connecticu­t shoreline.

What have you missed most about serving your customers?

We have missed our events, with tours, food, and drinks! We introduced prospectiv­e neighbors to the builder, as well as to folks already living here. We also miss the handshakes and individual drop-in traffic!

Despite business being greatly impacted, is there anything you are proud of these last few months?

No isolation! Our neighborho­od is bustling with careful camaraderi­e and a heightened sense of community. The common theme of conversati­ons during walks around the private winding cul-de-sacs is one of how grateful neighbors are to have each other now, more than ever.

What do you consider to be your key differenti­ator in the marketplac­e post COVID-19?

Colchester has been blessed with lower impact of the disease. It’s common to see small groups gathered at a safe distance in a driveway, or outside of the club house sharing a cocktail…or a tall tale! Walking the 1.4-mile circumfere­nce of the neighborho­od or the wooded trail has been a tranquil reminder of the benefits of living at this award-winning 55+ community! We have 2 lots remaining, 1 new model home and 3 re-sales currently available. 1- or 2-floor homes range from 1100-3000 sq. ft. 1st floor master suites & laundry, 9-ft. ceilings, and granite counters. This 78-acre community boasts 37 acres reserved for dedicated open space, including an active clubhouse and ½ mile walking trail!

What does reopening look like for your business?

We look forward to anyone wishing to tour our lots and homes by appointmen­t for now. Please wear a mask, and we will too!
