Moving to Mera means you get to keep doing everything you already love in life, plus you have the opportunity to try out new activities and say goodbye to the hassles of homeownership. Just imagine: never again will you be stuck at home waiting for the plumber to show up.
You can start your day quietly in your home, or join neighbors in the clubhouse for a morning cup of coffee and the latest news. You might be surprised by how friendly and welcoming your new neighbors are, but we’re sure it won’t take long for you to see that everyone is truly enjoying the Mera life—and they want to welcome you to the club!
Feel like getting some exercise? Drop by for one of our daily fitness classes, swim a few laps in the pool, play a game of pickleball, or take your dog for a stroll on the walking trails. Our daily activities are posted in the clubhouse and on your monthly activity calendar, so you’ll always know what’s coming up. Fitness classes and social gatherings are a great way to meet your neighbors—and they’re free!
Hungry? For those who love to cook, your spacious kitchen is well-equipped so you can prep your favorite meals with ease, and we’re here to help if you need assistance with your new appliances. If you prefer dining out, go for it! Our convenient covered parking or private garages make it easy to come and go as you please.
Planning a trip? You’ll probably find that going on vacation has never been easier. Just lock your door, and you’re off. If you’re running through your travel checklist and realize you forgot to adjust the thermostat—not to worry! Give us a call and we’ll take care of that for you. Whatever brings you bliss, life at Mera gives you the freedom to enjoy it all—while we worry about the rest.
Ready to take the next step and
treat yourself to stunning? Let us
help you plan your move.
No matter where you’re moving from, you’ll likely do some reorganizing and cleaning out, and if you’re moving from a larger house to a senior apartment home you will need to decide which items to keep and which ones you no longer need. The downsizing process can feel daunting if you think about doing it all at once. Let us assure you, more than 50% of our residents move here from single-family homes and have been through the same experience. If you ask them, they’ll tell you it was the best decision they’ve made!
If it feels overwhelming, remember to take your time, get help from others, and break the process into manageable pieces.
Our on-site team would love to recommend local downsizing and moving experts to make your move as seamless as possible so you can be doing what you’ve dreamed in no time.
