Identify What You Need
When it comes to Independent Living, there are a few key factors to consider. How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need? How much storage space and kitchen countertop area are necessary? How much square footage do you need for each room? Would you prefer a spacious freestanding cottage, or would you prefer to be closer to the action with our apartment offerings?
Not only should practical concerns such as these be looked at, but also comfort. Can you relax in a cozy environment as well as having enough space for items? These factors all must to be taken into account when identifying the needs for Independent Living. If you join us for a tour, one of our sales team members can walk you through all your options and guide you toward the right choice for you!
Cottage or Apartment?
When it comes to deciding between a cottage or an apartment there are many factors to consider. Fortunately, you will find it all at Falcons Landing—homes ranging from 1- and 2-bedroom apartments to 2-bedroom cottages featuring one-car garages as well as a patio or balcony. All of our homes are designed with style and creature comforts in mind. Plus, you have access to all the same great amenities Falcons Landing is known for, including:
Square footage is one of the key differences between these two living arrangements; typically cottages are larger and may offer more space for storage while apartments offer fewer storage options. Location and independence may also sway your decision, as cottages often have more privacy and a sense of seclusion whereas our apartments are bustling with activity just steps from your front door. But of course, social connections are a big factor in all of our Independent Living options.
