The Lodge of Northbrook

The Lodge of Northbrook is a three-story retirement community for adults 55 and older, sitting among well-kept grounds and lots of trees at 2150 Founders Drive in Northbrook, Illinois, offering assisted living, independent living, memory care, and nursing services, and with a focus on keeping things comfortable, safe, and social for everyone who lives there, with caring staff always close by to help with medication, daily activities, or anything that comes up, and a range of services through the Lodge and Encore Assisted Living. The building has one- and two-bedroom apartments, pet-friendly policies that allow dogs and cats, washers and dryers in most units, big balconies, extra storage, and options for both ownership and a maintenance-free lifestyle without the worries of home repairs, plus there's a heated garage, security doors, a door person, elevators, an on-site manager, and both craft and party rooms that make it easy for residents to meet up, work on hobbies, or relax together. Residents can join in exercise classes, personal training, guest speakers, crafts, travelogues, and daily recreational activities, while committees, Chicago trips, and social programs help keep everyone engaged and active, and there are lots of walking paths and gardens for those who enjoy being outdoors. The library, media room, and guest suites give places for quiet time or visits with family and friends, while dining plans provide daily, freshly prepared meals in the restaurant, or people can cook at home for themselves in the apartment kitchens if they prefer. Housekeeping, beauty services, parking, transportation, and concierge help are all offered to make life easier, and when residents need a little more support, staff provide 24-hour supervision, medication reminders, and on-demand services for extra needs, though there are some services that require extra payment beyond basic care. The Lodge of Northbrook keeps health, safety, and well-being as priorities, offers a supportive setting for meeting new friends, and has activities for just about any interest, with a sales office next door for information, tours, or a free kit for anyone wanting to know more. Condos built between 2013 and 2025 range from 741 to 2,029 square feet, and recent listings have averaged around $336,720.85; 13 units are available for sale, with an independent, active lifestyle that suits people looking for their own space but wanting community nearby, and a home-like atmosphere that means no big responsibilities.
