About Havenwood-Heritage Heights

The vision for our Concord senior living community began with our founding father, the Reverend Dr. Everett R. Barrows. He and his colleagues envisioned a faith-based, inclusive senior living community where seniors would live in independent cottages with access to supportive assisted living services. We first opened our doors in 1967 with our original Havenwood Campus, New Hampshire’s first independent living retirement community. In 1980, we added our second campus, Heritage Heights. Today, Havenwood-Heritage Heights is a faith-based, not-for-profit Continuing Care Retirement Community accredited by the Continuing Care Accreditation Commission.
