For many, the dream of becoming a snowbird and spending the winter months in a warmer climate can feel out of reach due to the responsibilities of maintaining a home. But what if you could have the freedom to travel without the stress of upkeep, security concerns, or financial burdens? City Gardens’ Trillium tower in Kamloops offers a perfect solution for those ready to downsize with a collection of spacious studios and one, and two-bedroom suites.
If you are looking into downsizing, here are some benefits you can expect to find:
Financial Benefits
This is perhaps the biggest thing people think of when downsizing. And while it’s not all about money, this trend can help you save up and invest in things that matter most. When you sell your home and move into a smaller space, you can reduce your overall cost of living and unlock the capital in your house.
Low-Maintenance
Say goodbye to snow removal, grass cutting, or unexpected home repairs! Moving into a suite at Trillium reduces burdensome home maintenance and repairs, which can simplify your life, reduce stress and free up your time to travel whenever you want, especially during the winter. For those who are tired of walking up and down stairs all the time, a place with elevators and single-level suites like City Gardens can be less physically demanding.
Transform Your Travel Experience
Downsizing opens a world of travel opportunities. With reduced living costs, you’ll free up your budget for unforgettable adventures. Plus, managing and securing your space is easier. Lock the door and set off on your journey, confident that your home will be exactly how you left it when you return.
Sense of Community
For many people, especially snowbirds or retirees who often find great value in social connections, the sense of community of living in a place like City Gardens is another significant advantage. Being close to other neighbours and communal spaces like the fitness studio, amenity floor, or the Sky Lounge can build stronger connections and lead to increased engagement in community-related events.
Downsizing is about finding the right space that fits your evolving needs as you embrace a new phase in life. With its low-maintenance suites, enhanced security features, cost savings, and a sense of community, City Gardens provides an ideal setting for those looking to simplify their lives and enjoy the freedom of travel!
