Reading Woods is a 25-acre condominium community for people aged 55 and older located in Middlesex County, and although the homes are currently sold out, the grounds feature 424 condominium homes and townhouse options, including the Pines at Reading Woods for 55+ residents, so you'll find buildings with garages, garden-style condo units, and entrances surrounded by green landscaping and walking trails, plus there's a gazebo that stands out as a relaxing spot. Residents have access to a clubhouse with a fitness center and exercise room, a multi-purpose room for events, and programs like movie nights, fitness classes, music, and arts activities, and there's also a library, game room, spa, and outdoor programs, along with walking paths and open areas great for taking a stroll or sitting outside, and the community manages all the lawn maintenance and outdoor work through the homeowners' association, making things easier for residents.
The homes, whether they're condominium units or townhomes like the ones on Abigail Way or Augustus Court, come in various sizes with one to four bedrooms and include features like private balconies, energy-efficient layouts, big master suites, open floor plans, gourmet kitchens with granite counters and stainless appliances, custom wood blinds, nine-foot ceilings, recessed lighting, two-car garages, and backyard spaces, with square footage running from about 934 to 2,098 square feet, all meant to be comfortable and practical for seniors. Inside each unit, you'll get air conditioning, cable TV, Wi-Fi, a private bathroom, and a kitchenette, while the buildings have elevators, parking, and transportation options for errands or appointments.
Reading Woods helps people live independently with services including housekeeping, laundry, concierge, and family support, but also provides personalized care like help with daily activities, medication management, meals, and supervision through a 24-hour call system, and those who need short-term breaks can use respite care. Dining is handled by a professional chef offering all-day meals, a restaurant-style set-up, allergy and diabetes-friendly choices, and meal prep and service, so residents have options to suit their needs. The location's close to restaurants, shops, banks, and gas stations, with the MBTA station, Interstate 95, and Highway 28 all nearby, and Winchester Hospital is just a short drive away, plus people can play golf at Bear Hill Golf Club or visit conservation parks and forests in the area, with Boston less than 20 minutes away by car for anything the city offers. Homes here use amenities by Pulte Homes, and the community features flex rooms, storage, and clubrooms as well, all designed for easy, comfortable living as part of a larger group of 55+ residences in the region.
