Woodcrest Villa Introduces Goldfinch: A New Standard in Luxury Retirement Living

Some places offer a beautiful residence. Others offer an enriching lifestyle. Goldfinch at Woodcrest Villa is thoughtfully designed to deliver both.

Woodcrest Villa is proud to introduce Goldfinch, an exceptional new apartment residence that will elevate luxury living at one of Lancaster County’s premier retirement communities. Reservations will begin soon, with construction anticipated to begin in Fall 2027 and move-ins expected in Summer/Fall 2029.

Architecturally inspired and crafted with an elegant blend of stone, brick, wood, and expansive glass, the six-story Goldfinch residence will be home to just 76 private apartment homes. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a refined living experience that combines sophisticated design, modern convenience, and meaningful connection.

Elevated Living, Inside and Out

At the heart of Goldfinch is a commitment to effortless living. For the first time in a Woodcrest Villa apartment residence, select homes will enjoy the convenience of private garages located within the building itself. Fifty-four garage spaces on the first floor provide easy access and added peace of mind.

Above it all, residents will discover a stunning rooftop retreat designed to inspire year-round enjoyment. Featuring both indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, the rooftop terrace offers sweeping views of Lancaster County and a beautiful setting for morning coffee, sunset conversations, entertaining friends, or simply taking in the scenery.

Goldfinch also offers direct interior access to Woodcrest Villa’s extensive amenities, allowing residents to move seamlessly between home, dining venues, wellness opportunities, educational programs, social gatherings, and spiritual enrichment, regardless of the weather.

A Community Designed Around Connection

Luxury is more than beautiful surroundings. It is the freedom to live fully and connect meaningfully.

Goldfinch has been thoughtfully designed to encourage relationships and foster a vibrant sense of community. Elegant gathering spaces provide inviting settings for celebrations, shared interests, and spontaneous conversations. Whether hosting family in your residence, meeting neighbors on the rooftop terrace, or participating in one of Woodcrest Villa’s many programs and events, opportunities for connection are woven throughout daily life.

Built to Endure

Behind Goldfinch’s distinctive exterior lies a commitment to exceptional construction quality.

Each apartment building at Woodcrest Villa is built using a concrete plank structure, a construction method selected for its long-term durability, stability, and resident comfort. Compared to traditional wood-frame construction, concrete plank construction helps reduce sound transmission between residences while providing a more solid, quiet living environment. It also offers greater architectural flexibility, creating a residence that is both visually distinctive and enduringly elegant.

As Woodcrest Villa President John Sauder explains:

We believe concrete plank construction offers significant advantages in stability, durability, and comfort. It creates a quieter living experience, minimizes settling and cracking over time, and allows for a more distinctive architectural design than many conventional apartment buildings.

Personalized Luxury

Goldfinch offers eight thoughtfully designed floor plans ranging from approximately 1,520 to 2,062 square feet.

Available layouts include:

  • Two-bedroom residences
  • Two-bedroom residences with a den
  • Three-bedroom residences with a den

Each home is designed to maximize comfort, natural light, and livability while offering the flexibility today’s discerning residents desire.

Residents will enjoy a personalized design experience, selecting finishes that reflect their individual style, including:

  • Cabinetry
  • Countertops
  • Flooring
  • Paint colors

Every residence includes a private patio or balcony, while select homes feature dramatic floor-to-ceiling living room windows that showcase expansive views and fill the home with natural light. Select residences will also include the convenience of a private ground-level garage.

A Rare Opportunity

Goldfinch represents a rare opportunity to enjoy a luxury residence within a vibrant, established community known for exceptional amenities, lifelong learning, wellness opportunities, engaging social experiences, and lasting friendships.

For those seeking the confidence of a continuing care community combined with the elegance and ease of luxury apartment living, Goldfinch offers a compelling new chapter.
