• Wire for sound from soft backyard music to guest participating karaoke (Invite the neighbors so they won’t complain).

• Create focal points for socializing with seating, re: sofa areas, dining areas, built in seating on deck, bar stools around kitchen area.

• Create eye appeal with colorful plantings and planters that flower throughout the summer season as well as the perennial greenery that is the design staple.

• Add backyard games like horseshoes, bocce, shuffleboard, badminton, etc. or put in a putting green, if there is space.

• Use outdoor area rugs to define space and create an outdoor “room”.

And, if you’re lucky enough to have the space and funds, build your own pool house! Here’s one that includes a full kitchen and bath, fireplace and T.V. and comfortable seating located

As we social distance and continue to be mindful of the world around us, our summer plans are surely closer to home than we ever expected. Even before our world turned upside down, people were becoming aware, with the help of interior designers, of the possibilities of creating more living and socialization space in their own back yards. From large to small spaces and with meager or mega budgets, our own outdoors can help us create a ‘staycation’ for everyone’s enjoyment.

It’s not a new idea to add an outdoor kitchen to that old bar-b-que, but folks are doing more – much more for their summer entertaining (and possibly year round) space.

• Outdoor fireplaces and fire pits have become very popular for those chilly nights. They also extend the outdoor season into the fall.

• Pergolas define spaces and can be covered with foliage to set a destination in an area not on your deck or patio.

• If you use weatherproof fabric on furniture for your patio and deck that reminds you of your comfortable indoor seating, and use planters or potted plants to define the space, you will have an outdoor second den!

• If you need privacy, think of creative ways to screen your space from neighbors’ view with lattice, natural plantings, or even outdoor fabric curtaining.

• Add a hot tub for relaxing and entertaining, especially if you would like a water feature that is not a full size pool.

• On the subject of water features, think of adding an area with a waterfall or a fountain for a great visual effect.

• Create ambiance with proper lighting for enjoyment and function all through the night (light paths, focal points and seating areas).

• Create shady areas under umbrellas, awnings (retractable can be a

Enjoying Life in a Life Plan Community Vibrant…active…secure…social… maintenance-free…all words that many seniors today use to describe their ideal living situation. But how many options are there that truly hit on all of those ideals? If you’re looking to plan your ideal senior living experience, a Life Plan Community may be the option for you.

Although Life Plan Communities are common outside of New York, there are currently few such options for Long Island seniors looking to secure their future. Fountaingate Gardens, set to break ground this fall, is for seniors who want to age successfully in a community built with their lifestyle and future in mind. As part of the renowned Gurwin Healthcare System, this new independent living community will be located on the beautiful 34-acre

grounds of the Gurwin campus in Commack.

Life Plan Communities not only help secure your financial future, but also make provisions for your future healthcare needs. Add in a vibrant, active, amenity-rich lifestyle; a beautiful, new, elegant apartment home; and proximity to everything you want and need, and this retirement living option becomes – in the words of one of our Founders Club members – a “no-brainer!”

Besides a beautiful, customizable residence, Fountaingate Gardens will offer residents dining options, a fitness center, an indoor saltwater pool, arts and cultural education programs and much more. Maintenance-free living plus the convenience of activities and

amenities right on campus make every day an opportunity to do the things you enjoy without being hampered by the chores you don’t.

As part of the Gurwin Healthcare System, Fountaingate Gardens offers priority access to a full continuum of care should it ever be needed. There are a variety of contract options and apartment sizes available, and one of our Senior Lifestyle Consultants is ready to help you determine the best option for you based on your needs and preferences.

Ready to learn more? Apartments are reserving quickly, with almost 65% already reserved. Call us at 631-715-2693 to arrange a personal appointment (social distancing observed) or virtual visit today!
