What To Look For In An Over 55 Community

Rock Oak Estates is an affordable over 55 community in the heart of Clarence, New York. Many over 55 communities have overpriced homes and overpriced amenities.  In creating the Rock Oak Estates over 55 community in Clarence, NY, owner Paul Stephen had the desire to create a thriving neighborhood at a fraction of the cost.

There are several things to look for in a quality over 55 community, according to Paul: 

First, the quality and aesthetics of the homes and neighborhood should be excellent.

Second, there should be access to green space and ideally a walking trail.

Third, there should be a community center and organized activities sponsored by management and also started by involved residents.

Fourth, there should be a tight knit group of neighborly owners who care about the community and neighborhood

And lastly, there should be a spirit of cooperation and like-minded care about the community.

Paul has put those priorities high on the list in developing Rock Oak Estates.

“We’ve achieved the vision thanks to our high quality, affordable homes and terrific residents who have created a close knit community filled with activities and events,” Paul said. 

Residents regularly use the expansive grounds and nearby bike path for exercise.  

The Community Center hosts seasonal events as activities.

A friendly atmosphere prevails with neighbors helping neighbors and getting to know each other.

“Our terrific residents care about each other and their properties and it shows in the beauty of Rock Oak Estates and the friendliness you see when you visit,” Paul added. 

And, he added, all of this comes with affordable home pricing and absence of large fees and hidden costs.

“Our community fulfills what our wish is for our residents: lovely homes at an affordable price so everyone can live full active lives in a safe neighborly community.” Paul said.

Rock Oak homes are manufactured with quality in both materials and aesthetics.  Homes are decorated inside and out, showing residents’ unique style.  And the homes cost a fraction of standard houses, which continue to escalate in price. 

Great homes in an idyllic setting nestled in Clarence, NY, with amenities and proximity to shopping, doctors, local businesses and national chains — Rock Oak Estates fulfills Paul’s vision of an over 55 community that is financially achievable and filled with activities and friendly neighbors.
