Independent living is best defined as seniors who can take care of themselves and their residence and are able to live independently without medical care. Do you know the number of independent living options for seniors today? There are quite a few, as the retirement living landscape has changed.
Retirement living is no longer seen as a place for those who need assistance, but is now seen as a place for those who want to maintain their lifestyle without having to worry about taking care of a home. Each independent living option should be unique to the senior and should allow them to pick a home that is a perfect fit for them.
As you are considering your independent living options, here is what Meth-Wick has to offer.
Brendelwood Village
Brendelwood Village consists of 25 homes: 5 single family and 10 duplexes. The homes are private and spacious. Each home has it’s own attached garage with a private entrance and ranges from 1,250 square feet to 1,650 square feet.
Deer Ridge
Deer Ridge offers a condominium style of living. It is a multi-resident building that provides residents both privacy and fellowship. There are one-, two-, extra large two- or three-bedroom condominiums available.
Amenities at Deer Ridge include a woodworking shop, billiards room, computer room, exercise room and a beauty/barber shop.
Greenwood Terrace
Greenwood Terrace first opened in April 1987. These condominium-style apartments have a true homey feel. There are one-, two-, extra large two- and three-bedroom units available. Each has it’s own porch and has plenty of storage space. The home you choose at Greenwood Terrace, like other places on Meth-Wick’s campus, can be customized to your style. You choose everything from the flooring to the paint color.
Highland Park
Highland Park is Meth-Wick’s newest addition. It consists of 13 units: 5 single-family homes and 4 duplexes. All homes have a two car attached garage, private entrance and are 1,600 square feet or larger. Each home has the option of adding a deck or porch and about half of the homes have walkout basements.
Independent living is for the active senior who is young or young at heart. The choices are many; the lifestyle is yours. It is important to know your options and find the retirement living environment that is the perfect fit for you.
