The Inspiration

The inspiration for Bayfield Mews came about through a partnership of community organizations and area residents who wanted to create an accessible seniors’ development which is more than just a place to live. Bayfield Mews offers an opportunity for private independent living in the social and supportive atmosphere of small-town living. We offer a lifestyle free from the day-to-day worries of maintenance and security. We cut the grass and shovel the snow and you have the freedom to lock the door and leave to spend time on things that are important to you.

The Project

Bayfield Mews is a planned retirement campus designed specifically for senior adults over 55. Bayfield Lifestyle+ Inc. owns the buildings and the lands. The 14-acre complex consists of fifteen clusters of town houses centered around a multi-purpose activity centre, including a 6-acre nature trail. Residents of Bayfield Mews purchase a life interest in their housing unit. Life Lease developments are the emerging lifestyle option for today’s retirees. The owner of a Life Lease has the exclusive right to occupy the suite selected and to use the common facilities for as long as desired. Residents own an Occupancy Agreement registerable on title, not a deed. When an owner wishes to sell the Life Lease interest, the owner receives the market value less an administrative fee. Today’s seniors are able to protect their investment and earn a return similar to the equity growth in a conventional home without the headaches associated with the maintenance of the property. Purchasing a Life Lease in Bayfield Mews is smart retirement planning.

Bayfield Mews is conveniently located in a beautiful natural setting just a short walk from Lake Huron. Enjoy nature at its best with some quiet bird-watching or plan to take some time to enjoy a friendly game of chess or cards in the common room. You can be reassured to know that your neighbours in Bayfield Mews likely share many of the same interests as you do. If your roots are in the area or if you are thinking of making Ontario’s west coast your home, Bayfield Mews in friendly Bayfield is the perfect solution for your long-term retirement housing needs.
