Cottagers are members of THE HEIGHTS community and are a stone's throw from its shops, barber, beauty salon, and vibrant social gatherings and activities. A shuttle bus makes regular rounds to transport Cottagers to and from the grocery store and other local destinations. Assigned parking spaces come with each cottage for those who prefer to drive their own car.

Each one- or two-bedroom cottage is designed in a classic New England style and includes a fully equipped kitchen, a full bath, a gracious living room and a yard for gardening or birdwatching.

In the cottage community residents live independently in a caring and secure neighborhood environment with so many conveniences close at hand.
