    WELLNESS. THE NEW LUXURY BY KYLEMORE We believe that discerning home buyers recognize that luxury is more than just a “what.” It is also a “where” and a “how”. It is an expectation that wellness be the focus of every aspect of the way their community is designed, and their home is made. Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. It is a dynamic process of change and growth; a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being. Wellness is the truest form of luxury. LIVE. WELLNESS.
