What you may be looking for in a new home doesn’t have to do with what’s important today, but what might be important years from now. 

At Cornerstone Homes, we believe that life is full of surprises. As you venture into this next wonderful phase of life in your new home, rest assured that our homes are created to work for all people, no matter what life throws at you.

Like many of our homeowners, Pat was living in a two story home when her knees started to bother her running up and down the stairs. So she decided it was time to start looking at single level homes. “I really didn’t think about a 55+ community but saw the sign for Barley Woods in Fredericksburg.” Pat drove into the community, met with Janet and toured the Washington Model. Pat said, “Wow, this is nice! Lots of natural light, one level-no steps, wide open space!” She also loves the wider hallways and doorways, lever door handles, large master shower with grab bars, and raised commode! “I lived on 23 acres and did the lawn mowing, so you know I am loving the no-maintenance lifestyle here,” said Pat. And she does not miss bending over and weeding.  

Cornerstone understands that you want a home that simplifies everyday living, accommodates life changes, and allows you to spend more time doing what you love.
