Welcome to the only self-managed mobile home park in the State of Connecticut.
Talk to Us!The original homeowners raised funds to purchase the park. They obtained a mortgage and a charter with the State of Connecticut - thus Colchester Commons Management Corporation, a corporate-owned and self-managed park, was born.
Homeowners are required to purchase shares. These shares entitle them to vote on the annual budget proposed by the Board of Directors. The shares entitle them to vote to elect a Board of Directors as dictate by their By-Laws.
An astounding variety!

Colchester Commons is a Corporation. There are 95 homes in the Commons. At the closing, the new resident must purchase three (3) Shares. When residents volunteer, they participate in the management of the community. This is how we have become an independent adult community. We take pride in the fact that we have been here for 30-plus years as a self-sufficient close-knit community.
No, the Commons is not an Assisted Living Community. These homes are owned by residents 55 years of age and older. The Corporation owns the lots. But every resident is part of the Corporation and therefore is responsible for the appearance and maintenance of their home, shed, garage, gardens, and shrubs on that lot.
The three (3) "Shares" guarantee a vote at the annual meeting (Budget) and special meeting (election of Board of Directors). Residents are also encouraged to attend monthly board meetings and participate in the volunteer effort. Attendance at a board meeting allows the residents to voice opinions and ask for information.
The monthly fee covers the following:
