Smart, Stylish, and Accessible Design
With Canada’s aging population, the demographic landscape is undergoing a significant shift. By 2040, it’s projected that seniors aged 65 and older will make up nearly a quarter of the population, increasing the demand for homes designed with accessibility in mind.
Resale options can be limited, but as custom builders receive more requests for homes designed to age in place that’s beginning to change.
