Quick answer
Towne Center Villas is an age-qualified 55+ community in North Logan, Cache County, Utah, built by Leisure Villas, with about 116 homes. Homes are townhomes running 1,003 to 2,735 square feet, priced $294,000 to $537,000. HOA dues run about $295 per month. The community is built out, so homes sell as resale.
It is a residential community, not assisted living or senior care. There is no staff, no nursing, and no meal service. Residents own their homes.

Towne Center Villas is Cache Valley’s largest 55+ community at 116 homes, with The Gathering Place clubhouse, for $295 a month.
It is age-qualified at 80 percent, not age-restricted, and unusually for this category, rentals are permitted.
Broker's note
The age rule here is documented in the community's own words, which is better evidence than most communities offer: 80 percent of the residents are 55 and older. That is the federal standard, and it means up to a fifth of homes can be occupied by someone younger. Directory sites list this as age-restricted, which overstates it.
Two things the marketing does not lead with. Rentals are permitted, which is unusual in this category and useful if you might not occupy the home year-round; renters trigger a business owners policy requirement with minimum structure coverage. And the master insurance policy only picks up damage to an individual home above a $50,000 threshold, so ask your insurance agent what you need to carry behind that.
Do not assume single-level. Most homes are one story, but a real minority at 2,190 to 2,735 square feet have two above-grade floors, which matches the community's own note about a bonus room over the garage. Ask about the specific unit rather than the community.
One pet per home, leashed outdoors. Dues are $295, not the $265 a listing site publishes. At 116 homes with a clubhouse called The Gathering Place, this is the largest 55+ community in Cache Valley and the one most likely to have inventory when you need it.

Is this the right fit?
A good fit if you want
- The largest 55+ community in Cache Valley, so more turnover
- A clubhouse and a real neighborhood scale
- Being five minutes from Logan Regional Hospital
- Rentals being permitted, unlike most 55+ communities
Look elsewhere if
- You want a hard 55-and-over rule. The standard here is 80 percent
- You assume every home is single-level. A real minority are not
- You have more than one pet
The homes
Where this stands, August 2026: Resale only, built in two phases 2007 to 2011 and 2012 to 2015. County assessed values run roughly $294,000 to $537,000.
What "single-level" actually means here
Plenty of 55+ homes advertise main-floor living and still put the laundry in the basement or the second bedroom upstairs. Here is what actually sits on the entry level at Towne Center Villas.
- Primary suite on the entry level
- Laundry on the entry level
- All daily essentials on one floor
Classify this one unit by unit, never community-wide. Most homes are one story, but a substantial minority at 2,190 to 2,735 square feet are recorded with two above-grade floors. That matches the community's own description of some homes having a bonus room above the garage. This is main-floor living with an upstairs, not true single-level.
What to check when you walk a home here
- Measure the interior doorways. 32 inches of clear width is the minimum that stays workable with a walker; 36 is better. This is expensive to change and easy to check with a tape measure.
- Look for a step-free way in. Often the garage door is the flattest entry in the house, and no listing ever mentions it.
- Push on the bathroom walls where a grab bar would go. If there is no blocking behind the drywall, adding one properly means opening the wall.
- Check whether the shower could go curbless without moving the drain, and whether there is turning room in the bathroom.
- Ask the age of the roof, furnace, and water heater. On resale homes in an established community, this is where the real money hides.
Amenities
- The Gathering Place clubhouse
The HOA
$295 per month
What the dues cover:
- Landscape watering and mowing
- Snow removal
- Clubhouse and pool maintenance
- Most exterior maintenance
- Master insurance policy
$295 a month, taken from the association's own materials. A listing site publishes $265, which is wrong. Note the insurance structure: the master policy covers general liability and common-area damage, and picks up individual home damage only above a $50,000 threshold.
Who actually runs this HOA
Registered with the Utah Department of Commerce as Towne Center Villas (registration 14257606-HOA1). It is self-managed by a volunteer board rather than a management company, which means documents come from a neighbor rather than an office.
This is the entity to ask for the budget, the reserve study, and the recorded CC&Rs. I request those for clients as a matter of course.
Two cautions I give every client buying into a newer association
Developer-set dues are introductory. While a builder still controls the association, dues are commonly set low and reserves underfunded, because low dues sell houses. After homeowners take over, boards routinely raise dues and levy assessments to catch up. Ask for the projected turnover date.
Ask for the reserve study, and check its date. Utah law requires a reserve analysis at least every six years, reviewed at least every three, with an annual summary to owners. Under 70 percent funded is a yellow flag. Under 50 percent is a real problem, and the bill arrives as a special assessment after you close.
What I have not been able to confirm at Towne Center Villas
Builders and associations do not publish everything, and some of what they do publish disagrees with the MLS. Rather than pick whichever number reads better, here is what is still open on this community as of August 2026. Ask for each of these in writing before you write an offer, or ask me and I will chase them down.
- Whether a pool and pickleball exist, which the association's own FAQ did not confirm despite third-party claims
- Transfer or reinvestment fees
Who is actually allowed to live here
Towne Center Villas is age-qualified, which is the looser of the two legal standards and the one families most often misread.
Under the federal Housing for Older Persons Act the association keeps its senior exemption as long as at least 80 percent of occupied homes have a resident 55 or older. The other 20 percent is real, usable room, and it is what lets a younger spouse, an early-50s buyer, or a surviving partner hold a home here. How much of that room is left is a question about this specific association, not about the law.
The thing almost nobody knows: HOPA does not, by itself, protect an under-55 surviving spouse. Whether your husband or wife can stay after you are gone depends entirely on the recorded CC&Rs. Some communities include an explicit survivor clause. Some leave it to the board. Some are silent, which is the worst version.
Get these answered in writing before you write an offer
- Can a surviving spouse under 55 remain, and is it written down or left to the board?
- Can an heir under 55 inherit and live in the home, or only rent or sell it?
- How much of the 20 percent cushion is already in use? If the community sits at 19 percent, there is no room left for your spouse. This is obtainable from the association and virtually nobody asks.
- Can a live-in caregiver under 55 stay if one of you needs help?
- How many days per year may a younger guest stay, and does that constrain a summer with the grandchildren?

The question adult children ask that nobody answers
How does an ambulance get in? If a community is gated or has controlled access, ask whether the fire district has a Knox box or gate code on file, and whether the first-due unit carries a paramedic. That detail matters more than the drive time does.
A useful benchmark: Medicare Advantage network adequacy rules set maximum time and distance standards by county type. In large metro counties the primary care standard is 10 minutes or 5 miles.
If you stop driving
The least-discussed risk in active adult housing. Losing the ability to drive roughly doubles the risk of depression symptoms and social isolation, and where a home sits determines how hard that transition is.
- Is there a continuous sidewalk to anything useful, or does every errand require a car?
- What is the walk to a grocery store or pharmacy on the actual sidewalk route?
- Is the address inside a UTA paratransit service area? ADA paratransit generally covers within three quarters of a mile of a fixed route.
- Does a county senior transport or volunteer ride program serve this address?
What it really costs each month
The sticker price is the least interesting number. What matters is the monthly nut, and how it compares to what you are paying now.
Starting here, roughly
—/mo
Based on this community's entry price of $294,000 and dues of $295, with (July 30, 2026 average), plus a typical Utah effective property tax rate and insurance. Utilities are not included.

* Based on what the community and builder publish about the dues, which I have looked up rather than assumed. It is not confirmed against the association's own budget and governing documents, and exactly what is covered can differ by phase, by home type, and over time. I pull the current budget and CC&Rs for clients before they write an offer.
This is the honest case for a 55+ community, and it is the one most people get wrong. The HOA fee is not purely an added cost. It replaces line items you already pay on a larger home, in cash or in your own labor. When someone tells me downsizing does not pencil, we usually find they compared the mortgage and the dues and left out the lawn service, the snow, and the roof they will need in six years.
Typical utilities
Rough monthly ranges for a home this size in North Logan. Utilities are the line item people most often forget to compare, and they are usually where a smaller home wins.
Estimates only, and they vary a lot. A townhome, a condo, and a detached single-family home of the same square footage can run very differently, and so can two neighbors in identical homes depending on thermostat habits, occupancy, and whether the yard is irrigated. Treat these as a starting point, then ask for the actual bills on a specific address.
For the son or daughter reading this
If you are researching Towne Center Villas on behalf of a parent, you are asking different questions than they are, and both sets are legitimate.
What to check at Towne Center Villas specifically
- How far North Logan is from you. Hands-on help from an adult child falls off sharply with distance, so treat that drive as a real factor rather than a detail.
- Access here is open, so the questions are address visibility at night and whether a medical alert device holds a signal on the lot.
- Whether a live-in caregiver under 55 is permitted. The recorded CC&Rs decide that, not the sales office.
- Whether the architectural committee permits a ramp or grab bars, and what the overnight guest limit is. That last rule is the one that quietly stops you staying a week to help.
Towne Center Villas is real estate, not care. There is no staff, no nurses, no meals, and no call system. If your parent needs help with bathing, dressing, or medication, that is assisted living, which is a different product entirely. Buying here because it sounds like a safer version of a house is the most expensive mistake families make.
The rest of it, coordinating with siblings, the paperwork worth locating now, the Medicare gap that catches families out, and how to raise the subject without a fight, is written out once in the family guide rather than repeated on every community page.
Other 55+ communities to compare
Worth a look before you decide. I would rather you tour two or three than fall for the first one you see.

Good to know
Frequently asked questions
-
Is Towne Center Villas age-restricted or age-qualified?
Age-qualified, and the community says so itself: 80 percent of the residents are 55 and older. That is the federal Housing for Older Persons standard, which means up to 20 percent of homes can be occupied by someone under 55, and younger residents are permitted while the threshold holds. Directory sites that list this as age-restricted are overstating the rule.
-
Can I rent out a home at Towne Center Villas?
Yes, which is unusual in this category. Most 55+ communities in this registry either prohibit rentals outright or cap them. Here renters are permitted, and they trigger a business owners policy requirement with minimum structure coverage of $50,000. If flexibility about occupying the home year-round matters to you, that is a genuine advantage.
-
Are the homes at Towne Center Villas single-level?
Most are, but not all, so check the specific unit. County records show a substantial minority at 2,190 to 2,735 square feet with two above-grade floors, which matches the community's own description of some homes having a bonus room above the garage. That is main-floor living with an upstairs rather than true single-level.
-
What are the HOA dues at Towne Center Villas?
$295 a month per the association's own materials. A listing site publishes $265, which is out of date. Dues cover landscape watering and mowing, snow removal, clubhouse and pool maintenance, most exterior maintenance, and the master insurance policy. Note the master policy covers damage to an individual home only above a $50,000 threshold, so ask what personal coverage you need behind it.
