Home-design journalist Jameson (
Downsizing the Family Home) discusses the house-related challenges that many homeowners will face as they get older. She delivers insight and wisdom geared toward older adults (she includes herself among their number)—people in their late 50s and early to mid-60s who are empty nesters and maybe retirees, and who may be entering what analysts and investors call the “freedom threshold”—the stage of life when work and school no longer factor in to where someone chooses to live. Jameson gives readers the information and confidence they need to create a home that is the perfect physical, emotional, social, and financial fit for their lives today and going forward. Her book is motivational and relatable; she profiles several people who effectively describe the issues they faced, how they felt, and how they created their own oasis in the last third of their life. There are checklists to help readers figure out what’s best for them.
VERDICT An excellent resource that helps people ages 50 and older reevaluate their lives and homes.
