Right-Sized Homes for All Stages of Life

At Champlin, we proudly offer homes in carefully planned 55+ communities that are perfect for your active adult lifestyle. We’re all about simplifying your life, which is why right-sizing your home is a smart move. What is “right-sizing”? It’s everything you need and nothing you don’t. It’s removing unnecessary steps and providing zero-entry. It’s putting everything within reach in the right amount of space. It’s creating a home you can lock and leave when traveling. Most importantly, it’s your forever home.

Because your Champlin home will be your forever home, we follow the 7 Universal Design Principles when creating our low-maintenance homes. Using these principles as a guide, we are able to truly create forever homes that will serve you now and in the future.

  • Principle 1: Equitable – the design is useful and marketable to people with diverse abilities.

  • Principle 2: Flexibility in use to accommodate a wide range of individual preferences and abilities.

  • Principle 3: Simple and intuitive design.

  • Principle 4: Perceptible information – the design communicates necessary information effectively to the homeowner.

  • Principle 5: Tolerance for error – home design that minimizes hazards.

  • Principle 6: Low physical effort – the home can be used efficiently and comfortably and with a minimum of fatigue.

  • Principle 7: Appropriate size and space is provided for approach, reach, manipulation, and use regardless of user's body size, posture, or mobility.

Universal design is a key factor for creating ideal living spaces for active adults over 55. While our homeowners are energetic and independent, incorporating features like single-story layouts, wider doorways, and grab bars in bathrooms anticipates future needs and promotes safe aging in place. This allows them to maintain their active lifestyles for longer, enjoying their homes without worrying about accessibility limitations.

Champlin Homes caters to active adults in Utah's Cache Valley by building age-restricted communities specifically designed for those 55 and over. These aren't just regular homes; Champlin focuses on fostering a sense of belonging by creating communities where residents can connect and enjoy an active lifestyle in their right-sized homes. 

Right-sizing your home isn't just about moving to a smaller space, it's about aligning your living situation with your current needs and lifestyle. This might be moving into a more manageable home, but it could also mean finding a place with a layout that better suits your daily routine or offers amenities that free up your time. Right-sizing is about maximizing your enjoyment of your home and minimizing the burden of maintaining excess space or features that no longer serve you.
