Customizing a Home at Pinnacle at Adams

For over 20 years, Traditions of America has offered maintenance-free living opportunities to people 55 and older. Communities designed and built by Traditions of America, though mainly located in Pennsylvania, will soon be expanding to Ohio and Virginia. Situated just outside of Pittsburgh, Pinnacle at Adams, an extremely fast-selling and popular community by Traditions of America, has only a few remaining homesites!

Pinnacle at Adams is the perfect location for homebuyers looking to build their home in a natural setting that supports an active lifestyle. This niche 55+ community features estate homesites, wooded trails, beautiful views, a community garden, a fire pit, and a pond, perfect for kayaking and fishing. 

When homebuyers choose to begin the building process at Pinnacle at Adams, or any of the other communities designed by Traditions of America, they receive access to a staff of professional designers, who will walk them through the process of customizing their new home. 

Many homebuyers choose to move walls to make certain spaces larger. Some may want to incorporate a spa-like master bath, a gourmet kitchen, or custom-designed outdoor spaces. Whatever the dream, designers with Traditions of America will work diligently to make it a reality. After structural changes are finalized, designers help homebuyers select finishes and appliances. The entire process takes approximately two to three months, resulting in a customized home that will serve as a setting for many more memories and experiences.

Many Americans Choosing to Live in 55+ Active Lifestyle Communities

Lifestyle community developer Traditions of America has constructed hundreds of homes in Pennsylvania and will expand into the suburban areas of Columbus, Ohio, and Richmond, Virginia, in the near future. Traditions of America specializes in active living communities that offer people over the age of 55 a high-quality, low-maintenance lifestyle.

As more Americans reach the age of 55, many are choosing to live in 55+ active communities as an appealing alternative to other types of master-planned communities. One major draw is the promise of a more socially active lifestyle, which has been linked to improved mental and physical health and an overall sense of well-being. 

Many of these developments incorporate high-end amenities that are available to all residents. Well-appointed clubhouses, fitness centers, and organized events are great ways for residents to get to know their neighbors, form lasting friendships, and discover new interests and hobbies. Active lifestyle communities also offer endless opportunities for entertainment. They are often conveniently situated within walking distance or short drives to attractions such as shopping malls, movie theaters, and golf courses. Grocery stores, restaurants, recreational areas, and health-care services are also often steps away.
