Ever come home after a vacation wishing you’d taken the room service with you? Combine everything you love about a posh resort, and a high end 55+ community, and you have Canvas Valley Forge. If move-in help, and grocery shopping service sounds too good to be true, sit back and relax, this one’s the real deal. Luxury communities like this are designed to cater to the boomer who’s spent the better part of life working hard for themselves, and their family, giving them the carefree lifestyle they deserve. Located in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, these gorgeous apartment homes have the convenience of smaller scale living without sacrificing comfort, and style.

If amenities had a grading scale, this Valley Forge location would be off the charts. Canvas has a list of activities not seen in many towns let alone an active adult community including a fitness center, community garden, infinity pool, and a Makers Space for woodwork, and mechanics. An on site salon keeps residents looking their best, ready to meet for a party in the courtyard, or a meal at the demo kitchen followed by a gathering in the private dining room. Humans aren’t the only ones being pampered, this pet friendly community also offers a dog park, and even a pet spa to freshen up after a rough, and tumble frisbee session.

What really sets Canvas Valley Forge apart is the impressive lineup of services you won’t see in most age restricted communities. Instead of painstakingly unpacking moving boxes, and getting dinner figured out, skilled movers will handle the heavy lifting, while you order your groceries online for home delivery, or take advantage of the Grab and Go Fresh Market. A pet concierge is available to walk your furry family members, or offer a pet sitter so you can head out to the on site farmers market, consult with your own personal shopper, or venture into town. An underground parking garage is available, but a vehicle isn’t required thanks to a convenient car, and bike share program designed to get you where you need to go.

These contemporary, 1-2 bedroom with den floor plans are luxurious, and inviting. If you’re on the fence about whether to sign a lease, a trial run incentive lets prospective tenants get a feel for the neighborhood with two free nights in one of their guest suites. When you’re not gazing out of your six foot windows, or hanging out with friends in the lounge, this King of Prussia location is just thirty minutes from Philly, and alive with entertainment, attractions, and outdoor recreation. While there’s plenty of city excitement to be had, a life of luxury begins at home.
