Fiddler's Green is a quiet, gated 55+ community in South Norman made up of 58 single-family resale homes, most of them small, usually between 1,400 and 1,600 square feet, with two or three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and attached garages; some homes have open layouts, dens, and plantation shutters, and there are five different floor plans, so folks get a choice depending on what they want. The homeowners' association takes care of yard work to keep things easy, and there's a clubhouse or community center where residents gather, holding meetings or just socializing, and there's a full kitchen there you can rent for a small fee, plus two bedrooms someone can rent out if guests need a place to stay overnight, which is handy. The community has a pool, outdoor patio spaces, walking and biking trails so residents can enjoy being outside, and there are activity rooms, a fitness center, a library, places for games and arts, and even an arts room, so people who like to stay busy have options. It's a low-maintenance place, designed so people can focus on living without worrying about chores. The homes are set up for internet, TV, air conditioning, and each unit gets its own private bathroom. For meals, there are a dining room and restaurant-style dining with all-day options, and staff pay attention to food allergies and special diets, which is important for some. There's a professional chef, and residents can eat together if they want.
For people who need care, Fiddler's Green provides several options-assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, respite care for short stays, and independent living, depending on what someone needs, and there are semi-private and suite accommodations, including help with day-to-day things like bathing, dressing, taking medicine, help for non-ambulatory residents, and a 24-hour call system for emergencies, which is reassuring. For those with Alzheimer's or dementia, there are secure memory care areas and staff run programs and activities that help with memory and daily skills. The site offers medical care round the clock and help for people with more complex health needs, like rehab and wound care, so no one has to move as their situation changes since they can age in place. The community's on the smaller side, with homes in a neighborhood setting, and it tends to be quiet, with most residents being active older adults who want privacy but also chances to be involved with others. Residents can take part in both community-planned events and things run by other residents, keeping folks social.
Fiddler's Green also includes various practical services-housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, move-in coordination, and concierge support for daily needs. For those interested in property and property management, the site uses specific terms like Parcel ID, Account ID, Legal, and Property Class, and there's a property search tool, search maps and lists, and a Buffer tool that helps with finding parcels in a circular area, as well as features for logging in and saving favorites. There are HOA dues covering maintenance and some property management is handled by an agent for a company LLC. The entire community is designed to support seniors as they age and their needs change, offering both comfort and some peace of mind while supporting as much independence as possible.
