The Douglas Company Wraps Construction on Verena at Hilliard Active Adult Cottages in Hilliard, Ohio

Hilliard, OH, December 12, 2024– Industry-leading General Contractor, The Douglas Company is proud to announce the completion of Verena at Hilliard Cottages, a $15.1 million active adult project located in Hilliard, Ohio. The project was the first collaboration between The Douglas Company and developer Green Courte Partners. While construction wrapped in September, the first five buildings were available for lease in March and since have become homes to many Hilliard residents.

Construction included the creation of 11 single-story cottages designed by Architect Bob Webb Homes – each containing four to six units per building for a grand total of 53 units – and a community pickleball court. In total, the project spans 95,167 square feet of living space. They are a welcome addition to Green Courte Partners’ Verena at Hilliard Luxury Independent Living Retirement Community, complementing the existing community while providing a unique offering of Active Adult rental cottages. The cottages will be operated by True Connection Communities similarly to the existing retirement community.

Residents of the newly-constructed cottages can expect spacious, well-appointed floor plans, granite countertops, in-unit washer and dryer, attached single-car garages, landscaped yards, and access to the pickleball court. The community is conveniently located near the Hilliard branch of the Columbus Metropolitan Library, many shopping plazas, restaurants, entertainment venues, public golf courses, and the Mount Carmel Hilliard Health Campus.

“These active adult cottages are an incredible addition to both the Verena at Hilliard Luxury Independent Living Retirement Community and the city of Hilliard as a whole,” Landon Kessler, Project Manager for The Douglas Company, said. “We’re happy to have been a part of providing these residents with a place they can be proud to call home.”
