A separate room off the front can serve as a den or formal dining room – you pick! And if you want a home with a similar feel but featuring a fabulous rear yard, check out the Cohasset. Read more »
The Gloucester style home on Lot 52 at Red Mill Village is all dressed up and ready to hit the town!
Red Mill Village is pleased to announce that nationally known Design East Interiors has spruced up this wonderful home and “if a picture is worth a thousand words”, then this fully staged home is worth many more than that! Please come and see for yourself!
The Gloucester on Lot 52 is ready for occupancy within 60 days and is priced at $529,000 which includes over $77,000 in upgraded finishes. With a base price of $479,000 for a newly constructed Gloucester, this home on Lot 52 is offered at a $27,000 savings.
According to Olimpia Carmone, Red Mill Village Sales Manager, “the Gloucester is a beautiful home that is based on our very successful flagship Ipswich style home. The Gloucester is a bit smaller than the Ipswich in its dimensions which allows us to offer it at a very favorable price. Design East does a wonderful job bringing to life a home. In other words, by decorating the home, it is no longer a “floorplan”, it is a “home” in which people can see themselves living, eating, relaxing.”
Just like the Ipswich, the Gloucester is a three bedroom single family home with a spacious feeling inside and a beautifully landscaped private side courtyard outside. The Gloucester has it all, with an open floor plan, first floor master bedroom suite, two bedrooms upstairs, a beautiful kitchen and “butler’s pantry” connecting to a formal dining room. One-upping its progenitor, the Gloucester has a large loft space upstairs. As with all Red Mill Village single family homes, the Gloucester’s has a two-car attached garage.
Come visit Red Mill Village and view this “imagineered” Gloucester home on Lot 52: based on the Ipswich, all dressed up and ready for you at $529,000.

Red Mill Village and WestRidge Catch the Wave: Opening the Doors a Bit Wider to People Less than 55 Years of Age
Red Mill Village and WestRidge are both “active adult communities”, meaning that residency is targeted to people over 55, combined with a strict prohibition against children under 18 years old permanently residing at either community. (Visitors are welcome, of course!) These limitations have created wonderful “lifestyle” developments, where people can enjoy themselves among a community of peers. Many Red Mill Village and WestRidge homeowners have raised a family and are now ready for the “party years” of fun, flexibility and relaxation.
However, there is also a new trend emerging in the active adult segment: loosening the age restriction a bit to broaden the new and re-sale market, while still retaining the character of the communities that people have come to love so well. Both Red Mill Village and WestRidge have adopted new rules in order to catch this wave.
At Red Mill Village, current homeowners recently voted overwhelmingly to approve a change lowering the minimum age to 50 years old, while retaining the restriction against children under 18 permanently residing. The effect of this was immediate as 2 potential buyers who were between the age of 50 and 55 stepped right up. So now the beautiful grounds of the Village Green, Victory Gardens, Meeting House and Pool will be seeing a fresh group of new neighbors.
At WestRidge, the age restriction is defined a bit differently. While still retaining the strict rule against children under 18, up to 20% of all homes may be owned by persons under 55. Once again, implementing this rule has been favorably received by current and prospective residents who like the idea of a broader group of friends, with 2 persons having already moved in.
Perhaps, we should redefine our communities as “even-more-active, active adult communities!”
So, if you have been ready for the relaxation of a lifestyle community, but were previously shut out because of not having reached the golden age of 55, your ship has come in! Please join us in these wonderful communities of Red Mill Village and WestRidge.
