Jenner’s Pond's Spacious, Newly Designed Cottages Designed for Active, Older Adults

Jenner’s Pond in Chester County offers spacious cottages with new finishes, designed for today’s active, modern elders looking for alternatives or to upsize to a forever home.

The thoughtfully designed living spaces in the cottages offer an option for older adults who want to skip the condo phase and move directly into a 62+ Life Plan Community that evolves with their needs. Home maintenance, repairs, landscaping, and security are all included, freeing residents to focus on living well while enjoying the privacy of a private home. The Jenner’s Pond community also includes modern one- or two-bedroom apartments on the 88-acre walkable campus, with dozens of paths, nature trails, scenic ponds, and a pet-friendly area.

With easy access to outdoor activities, including Brandywine Valley golf courses, Longwood Gardens, and gourmet dining at Kennett Square, the campus is also adjacent to a full-service YMCA with lap swimming and fitness classes.

As more baby boomers reach retirement age, social connection has become a defining priority, according to Brandon Logsdon, executive director at Jenner’s Pond.

“Socialization is at the forefront at Jenner’s Pond with over 30 resident-led groups, and countless ways to stay engaged. Seniors enjoy happy hours at the resident-run Morrie’s Pub, along with live musical performances and pub-style trivia nights,” says Logsdon.

Tours of Jenner’s Pond’s spacious housing options, including private cottages, are available. Many come with attached garages, gardening space, and patios, and some feature basements. Residents can choose from fully styled models or a fresh “vanilla” canvas ready for personal design touches.

“Our community is a mix of retired and still-working residents, who want to embrace the freedom of a 'lock-and-go' lifestyle,” said Logsdon.

As a Life Plan Community, Jenner’s Pond offers long-term peace of mind, with preferred access to assisted living, short-term rehabilitation, skilled nursing, or memory care.

Jenner’s Pond is part of the Simpson family of communities, delivering on more than 150 years of tradition: From independent living, assisted living, memory support, short-term rehabilitation, and skilled nursing, Simpson offers elders of diverse backgrounds everything they need for a flourishing life.
