Although there is an allure to spending retired life in a sunny southern state, that may not be an exciting prospect for you. Instead, staying in your current home or moving to a nearby senior living community may be just the ticket you need to a fulfilling retirement.

If you’re thinking of renovating your current space, there are a multitude of customizations and upgrades that can make your home more comfortable, accessible and functional. An interior residential remodeling company like FA Design Build can help you transform any room, from your kitchen to the home office you no longer need.

BayWoods of Annapolis puts a range of amenities, services and activities right at your fingertips so you can enjoy retirement with less stress. Its location right on the soothing Chesapeake Bay only adds to the experience.

Living at BayWoods of Annapolis, the area’s premier waterfront retirement community

Howdy and Liz Freedlander moved to BayWoods of Annapolis after 44 wonderful years in Easton on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It was time to shed the responsibilities of home ownership and be closer to their daughters in West Annapolis and northern Baltimore County.

On a pilgrimage to look at Continuing Care Retirement Communities, they stopped looking after visiting BayWoods, their first destination. They loved the location on the Bay, the friendly feel, and the many amenities and activities of a comfortable, yet sophisticated, waterfront retirement community. “We’ve made new friends with whom good laughs and interesting conversations are always available,” says Liz.

It was also important to Liz and Howdy to continue their active civic participation, which was a big part of their lives in Easton. After moving to BayWoods, Howdy joined the Historic Annapolis board and the advisory council of the Luminis Health Foundation, while Liz became a member of BayWoods’ corporate board and the Hospice of the Chesapeake Foundation.

BayWoods also provides easy access to cultural activities in Annapolis, Baltimore and Washington, DC. “Avenues for every interest – non-profit missions, art, music, theatre, and, of course, access to the Bay – are here for everyone,” says Liz.

“This is our home and a great choice for us,” Howdy says. “The ‘Land of Pleasant Living’ surrounds us.”
