Cornerstone Homes provides spectacular communities and homes that you’ll love coming back to every single day. Single-level and low-maintenance living, our homes are built to enhance your lifestyle. Spend your days at resort-style pools, sip coffee in your private courtyard, and enjoy weekends away knowing that your home is taken care of. At a Cornerstone Homes community in the Richmond, Smithfield, or Charlottesville area, you get to live life on your terms, on your own time, and exactly how you’ve always wanted. Below are our top eight reasons to love Cornerstone Homes:  

1. A Community Where Friends Become Family

Retirement is a great time to connect with neighbors and cultivate friendships. Here, an abundance of amenities and activities means a lively social life! Whether it’s our morning coffee hours or communal grilling areas, gourmet kitchens, and fire pits, there are plenty of chances to engage with new friends with interests of all kinds. 

2. One with Nature

The opportunities for peaceful, outdoor serenity in our communities are endless. Enjoy miles of walking trails, dog parks, activity lawns, or Woodside Farms at Chickahominy Falls. Not to mention, you can join one of the many social clubs in our communities that get you outside and socializing with neighbors as you claim your own little piece of nature with your favorite vegetables, flowers, and more. 

3. The Outdoors is Calling

All of our floor plans offer private outdoor living spaces and an abundance of natural light. Enjoy your morning coffee with the sun on your cheeks… it tastes better this way! Not to mention, cocktails are pretty fabulous when enjoyed under the stars. Perfect for privacy or when you want to spend time with friends, our outdoor living gives you the chance to relax like never before.     

4. Live Healthy, Live Well

When you love your surroundings and your neighbors, working out becomes fun. We promote a healthy lifestyle by providing countless opportunities to stay active! With luxurious clubhouses, fitness centers, resort-style pools, surrounding walking trails, and more, you’ll look forward to working on the exercises you love best on your own or with your friends!

5. Lock and Leave

You’ve worked hard to get to where you are and now is the time to enjoy your success! Less work means more time to travel and explore, so we’ve made our homes maintenance-free to give you the ability to lock and leave without worry. We’ll take care of your yard work and keep your home safe, guaranteed. Start checking off your wish list of things to do and places to see! 

6. Built for YOU!

We believe that you’re not downsizing from your previous home, but “right-sizing” to fit your lifestyle. Our homes feature convenient single-level living without sacrificing the ability to have family and guests over! From expandable great rooms, spacious outdoor living areas, and unique flex spaces, you can get the most out of your home without additional work!

7. Near and Dear to Big Cities

In addition to having everyday conveniences, homeowners also have the option to spend time in close-by cities. Enjoy one-of-a-kind shops, award-winning restaurants, and world-class museums and entertainment just a short drive from the comfort of your own home. Whether you want to spend a night in the city or a day exploring the town with your grandkids, you can do it. 

8. With Us, It’s Personal

We’ll be with you through the entire process, answering all questions and taking care of everything to make buying your new home an incredible experience!
