Live your best life: Something new for 55+ homeowners

-

Adults age 55 and better are discoverin­g the unique lifestyle perks offered by Gatherings at Westview, a 55+ condo community by Beazer Homes.

Just minutes from downtown Houston, Gatherings is ideal for those looking to downsize without sacrificin­g their new home musthaves, such as high-end finishes and open-concept living.

Amenities like a putting green, dog park and grilling pavilion set the scene for the good life that comes with owning a Gatherings home.

The lifestyle is made sweeter by the promise of next-to-zero maintenanc­e.

Since opening in 2020, Gatherings at Westview has drawn numerous residents who enjoy travel, like Betty Daniels, a current Gatherings resident.

Daniels says that lowmainten­ance living has allowed her to travel more by giving her more freedom to pack up and go.

“All we have to do is lock the door and leave,” she says.

“Our residents are comforted by the lock-and-leave way of life,” says James Ellison, division president for Beazer Homes Houston. “They can leave for a long trip to another country or drive out of town to visit family easily. Without worrying about exterior home maintenanc­e or leaving a quiet home behind, they are free to enjoy the trip ahead. Residents are excited to finally be able to enjoy the lifestyle they’ve been working toward.”

Once drawn in by the low-maintenanc­e lifestyle, home buyers find their new community of neighbors to be the best part of Gatherings life. At home, they enjoy getting together for walks in the nearby park and socializin­g in the evenings.

While Beazer designed Gatherings around a unique lifestyle for 55+ buyers, the builder stays true to the superior energy efficiency and quality they’re known for in Houston and beyond. Beazer is committed to building 100% of homes to meet ENERGY STAR guidelines, providing a highly efficient living space that means comfort and savings for homeowners.

“Our goal is to deliver homes that are comfortabl­e, durable and provide surprising savings for Beazer homeowners,” Ellison says. “For each home, we’re able to share an estimated average monthly energy cost so buyers can anticipate their monthly expenses from the start. We’ve put these practices in place for singlefami­ly homes and for our 55+ active-adult condos as well.”

Gatherings at Westview includes everyday convenienc­es like trash valet service, profession­ally maintained grounds, controlled-access building entrances, and a balcony and garage for every home. And just outside the property is a thriving neighborho­od with a large park for walking, restaurant­s, and shopping.

The community is just west of I-10 and Loop 610 and minutes from the Galleria, Memorial Park, and City Centre.

New on-site amenities include an outdoor grilling area, dog park, putting green, exercise room, game room, grilling area and social spaces.

Gatherings at Westview is located at 6804 Westview Drive.

Four model homes are open for touring SundayMond­ay from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m., and Tuesday-Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Visit gatherings.com or call 281-616-5228 for informatio­n.
