2019 OVER 40 & FABULOUS! ADVISORY BOARD: Midlife Community Living—Melanie Poole of EVOQ Town Flats at Johns Creek
EVOQ Town Flats at Johns Creek is revolutionizing the world of community living. For mature working professionals, this new neighborhood provides high-end living amenities in an environment free of children.
What makes EVOQ Town Flats at Johns Creek different from other active adult communities?
The concept for EVOQ is really the first of its kind anywhere in the Atlanta market. The EVOQ brand was conceived to serve a much different client, one that isn’t being served today. Yes, the first resident will need to be 55 but the second occupant can be as young as 45. Every inch of this community was carefully thought out to ensure it would be an amazing experience for the residents. We offer 23 floor plans, which is unheard of in multifamily development. Most communities offer four to eight floor plans at the most. We wanted our residents to be able to pick a floor plan that meets their needs, like they did before with a homebuilder.
What is one thing that challenges you most about your industry?
Educating the general population about what midlife community living truly means is a challenge. This community was designed around the needs of mature working professionals. The apartments feature details such as gas cooking, wine refrigerators, and his-and-hers vanities. As soon as people hear that we are age-restricted, they think we are independent living but what we offer is exactly like any other conventional apartment community, just without kids or teenagers running around.
