Categories: Active Adult, Caruso Homes, Community Feature, Pennsylvania, Retirement Home
Active adult living is a lifestyle designed for adults 55 and older who want freedom from yard work and more time for friends, hobbies, and fresh air. It means choosing a home that works for your life today and tomorrow, without giving up comfort, connection, or joy. But what does that really look like in practice?
At Amblebrook in Gettysburg, it looks like wooded homesites, resort-style amenities, and a community that actually feels like one. If you’ve been wondering where this next chapter of life could take you, here’s how Amblebrook helps you live it to the fullest.
Introducing the New Phase at Amblebrook
The newest phase of homesites at Amblebrook is now open, and it’s the most scenic section yet! These premium lots offer peaceful wooded backdrops, open views, and extra breathing room, giving you space to stretch out, slow down, and settle in.
Located within an already thriving 55+ community, this new phase is your chance to build a personalized home in a setting that feels tucked away but still connected. Whether you’re drawn to nature, looking for privacy, or simply want a home that feels like a retreat, this is the best time to get in.
One-Level Luxury Homes Designed for 55+ Lifestyles
Amblebrook offers thoughtfully designed floor plans made for one-level or main-level living. Caruso Homes' offerings include the Hayes, Kellaway II, and our newest addition, the Ashland model--each crafted to combine style, comfort, and versatile space.
These homes range in size from 2,036 to over 3,000 square feet, with up to 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms.
Main-level living is at the heart of every plan, with the option to add guest suites or a second floor for extra space.
Inside, you’ll find open kitchens made for Sunday dinners, spa-like owner’s suites built for winding down, and screened porches that make morning coffee feel like a vacation.
From impromptu visits from the grandkids to everyday routines, these homes make daily life feel easier and more enjoyable.
