Part 1: The Reality of Aging in Place Did you know that nearly 90% of people want to Age in Place? But here’s the catch-most homes aren’t designed for aging or mobility challenges. While 88% of homeowners plan costly renovations, studies show only 10% of those homes are truly mobility-friendly.
If you are unfamiliar with the Hudson, WI and St. Croix River Valley (on either the WI side of the river or the MN side of the river) look no further for Realtors® who are licensed in both WI and MN. John and Becky have lived on both sides of the river in multiple communities, enjoying what the St. Croix River Valley has to offer. Maybe you are looking for a short commute to the Twin Cities of St. Paul/Minneapolis for work, or maybe you simply want to enjoy all the amenities the Twin Cities offer while living in a small river town.
The Carmichael Ridge development consists of single-family homes, detached villa-style homes, and twin homes. Hans Hagen Custom Homes started the development, and eventually, it was purchased by M/I Homes, who finished the development. The development has a Home Owners Association of less than $200/month that includes snow removal, lawn care, and professional management. The Carmichael Ridge development consists of scenic walking paths and is within walking distance of a Target store, a shopping strip mall, a health food grocery store, and restaurants such as Culver’s and Applebee’s. The I-94 interstate access ramp is less than one minute by car, while the Hudson Hospital and Clinic is less than two minutes away.
With one-level living, open main floor plans, Carmichael Ridge presents ease of movement throughout the homes, particularly should mobility issues ever become a problem. Baby boomers, seniors, and the adult children of the aging population are planning ahead and actively seeking out one-level living, making this a very popular trend. Downsizing your home while you are in control is a major accomplishment towards planning for the future. By downsizing and choosing a one-story main floor living home, you are afforded opportunities multi-level homes cannot offer. The decision to downsize is financially cost-effective as you will achieve a reduction in property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, utilities, and maintenance costs, which, when totaled, will save you thousands of dollars annually. You will find even the mundane task of cleaning your home will be easier when right-sizing to a one-level home, allowing you significantly more time to enjoy the activities you always wanted to engage in.
