Adams Farm

Adams Farm sits in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, in a quiet area that's designed just for folks age 55 and older, and it's a community with 90 total units made up of both townhouses and duplexes, so you've got some choices for the kind of home you want, and many of them are private end units that give a sense of quiet and space, and most of the homes were built around 2005 and 2006 with about 3,124 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, and three and a half bathrooms, so they're not small places, and you'll find things like a two-car attached garage, an in-unit laundry with washer hookups, and rooms finished with hardwood floors, wall-to-wall carpeting, and tile. There's a fireplace in the living room, a sunroom for all seasons, and some homes have extra rooms like a media room, game room, home office, and library, and there's often a bonus loft or sitting area upstairs, so there's plenty of spaces to spread out or spend time with guests or family, and you get moldings, wainscoting, high ceilings, granite or solid-surface counters, and things like a jacuzzi tub in the master bath, so while the place is practical, some touches stand out a bit. The kitchens usually have high-end appliances like a Viking stove and quality cabinets, and you get central air and heat powered by natural gas. You'll also have an attached porch or patio that looks out on landscaped grounds, and if you want to spend time outside, there's a park, walk and jog trails, a golf course, and access to public transportation right in the community or nearby, while off-street parking makes visits easier. The community association takes care of the grounds, structure, road, snow removal, insurance, and trash, so most outdoor chores are handled, and the monthly fee covers all that, which helps with peace of mind. There's a clubhouse where people meet for events, a fitness center, a clubroom, and a billiards room, so neighbors get together if they're interested. Safety features like built-in security systems come standard in most homes. Water and sewer are public, and homes are on the gas grid for cooking and laundry, with options for a gas range and electric oven or dryer. The homes were all designed with style in mind, from the gracious foyer and Brazilian cherry floors to the cathedral ceilings in dining and family rooms, and they're part of a planned, quiet neighborhood that's zoned for residential living, with parcel number 4620219 showing the lot. It's managed by a professional company that's off-site, which keeps the place in shape, but there aren't any special accessibility features, so it's something to think about if that's needed. The annual property tax is about $7,920. The area's car-dependent, with a walk score of 10 out of 100 and bike score of 7, so most errands need a car. The location's close to medical offices, highways, shopping, and both public and private schools, and nearby neighborhoods include Williams Street and Millham, so it's not far from other parts of town, and if you want to know about homes for sale or rent, listings and transaction options are handled by real estate agents who specialize in communities for older adults.
