Helen Terstappen moved to Windsor at Glen Mills in January 2006 from her four-bedroom home in Media, PA. For Helen, Windsor offered an appealing combination of independence and security, along with just the right balance between activity and peace and quiet.

"I looked at many places, but I always came back to Windsor," Helen said. "I liked the idea of an active 55+ community much better than an extended care or assisted living residence. I wanted to keep my independence."

"There is always plenty to do here, but there is never any pressure to participate," Helen said. "You can be as involved as you want, or you can decide to relax and do nothing at all. The residents organize things like card parties, Italian dinners, and bus trips, and there's a resident-run library on the first floor."

Given Windsor's easy proximity to Media and Route 1, some residents are surprised by the tranquility they find. "My balcony is peaceful and quiet, and it faces a row of trees," Helen said. "And the building is well constructed, so there's no noise inside."

Along with its solid concrete-plank construction, the Windsor building offers Helen the security she was looking for. "There's a secure entry, and I have my own assigned indoor parking spot," Helen said. "It's very convenient-I just take the elevator right down to the parking garage, which is very well lit."

"Windsor has everything I wanted," said Helen. "My master bedroom is very large, and it has a walk-in closet. The second bedroom and second bathroom give me plenty of room for guests. I have a washer and dryer right in my unit, and the room sizes were large enough for my living room and master bedroom furniture. I was able to keep everything I wanted from my old house, and I don't miss anything I got rid of," Helen said. "I even have a storage space right across from my parking spot, and another one on my balcony. There's plenty of room."

"I felt that Windsor's price was very fair, especially compared to other condominiums I looked at," Helen said. "I'm very happy here - I tell everyone! Windsor has the whole package."
