Fort Washington Manor stands at 10800 Indian Head Hwy in the St. Charles/Waldorf area, which is part of the Washington DC - Suburban Maryland region, and folks living here need to be at least 62 years old, so this is a senior community managed by ResidentialONE, and folks can pick from either one-bedroom apartments or two-bedroom places, some with just one bath and others with two, all in a building that went up in 2007 and holds 153 apartment homes in total. The whole place covers about 121,550 square feet, and these apartments are pretty roomy and let in a lot of light, plus they've got up-to-date appliances such as dishwashers, microwave ovens, oven, and refrigerators, and since there are washer and dryer hookups, folks can do their laundry right in their own place if they want. Each apartment has central air conditioning and heating, walk-in closets, wall-to-wall carpeting, window treatments already in, and private patios or balconies, and the kitchens are fully equipped with a garbage disposal too.
Common spaces around Fort Washington Manor try to make things comfortable and keep everyone busy, so you've got a theater room, a library, a big laundry facility if you'd rather not use your hookups, a wellness center, and a computer/business center, and there are lounges and an activity room for spending time with neighbors. There's a planned activity calendar, and the staff really make a point of showing compassion, patience, and respect for all the residents, so there's a sense of community here. The building is pet-friendly and they've got elevator access to each floor, controlled access for security, and the bathrooms are handicap-accessible, which is important for a lot of folks. Outside, residents can use the picnic area with grills, walk the walking track, spend time on outdoor trails, or even visit a recreation center nearby, which is nice for staying active. There's also a shuttle bus service handy if someone needs help getting around, and 24-hour maintenance services if anything goes wrong in the apartments or common areas.
Cable and internet readiness are standard, and you don't have to worry about basic utilities or modern site specifications since that's all taken care of, and for those who value affordable and independent living in their retirement years, this is a place that fits that need, offering quiet comfort and support to folks who want it, all without being too fancy or over the top.
