Waterstone of Lexington sits in a quiet spot among the trees, right next to Belmont Country Club, and you can easily get there from main roads, which is helpful for people coming and going, and really, folks who live there find a wide range of care because the place was built to help people as their needs change over time, whether they need independent living, assisted living, memory care through Bridges® by EPOCH, or the support services of a continuing care retirement community, and you'll notice the community tries to keep life easy-there's maintenance-free rental apartments with housekeeping and repairs included, covered parking that stays private and keeps you out of the weather, and pet-friendly options in the independent living apartments that are decorated with a clean mid-century modern touch, bright tall windows, high ceilings, balconies, and plenty of space to feel comfortable. Residents get help as needed with day-to-day tasks like bathing or taking medicine in assisted living, and wellness plans and care consultations are set up for each person so what help they get fits what they need, while memory care for people with Alzheimer's or other dementia sits close by in its own building, run by Bridges® by EPOCH staff, and staff offers specialized and understanding care for these conditions.
You'll find safety features in all the apartments, especially in the design of bathrooms, kitchens, and living spaces, so folks can move around without worry, and every apartment has access to supportive care right where residents live. Meals are made fresh and change with the seasons-there are three meals a day for assisted living and a regular menu for everyone, all put together by a talented chef, and you can eat in the dining area or have it served elsewhere if needed. There's a state-of-the-art fitness center with an indoor heated pool where people take fitness and aquatic classes, trainers are often on hand, and you'll see social and wellness programs on the calendar every day, so whether someone wants to do yoga, try Tai Chi, join a book club, or make art in the studio, there's always something going on, and if somebody wants to see a movie, the community's got a private theater for that, or if it's just about relaxing, there's a full-service salon or a juice bar by the mind-body studio. Library, art studio, theater, and all sorts of cultural and educational programs fill the days with chances to meet new friends and find old hobbies again.
Concierge services set up appointments or arrange for local transportation so getting to town, seeing the doctor, or visiting nearby places is easier, and 24/7 telehealth through Tembo Health lets people get medical help right from their apartments without long waits. Private underground parking keeps cars safe, and the scenery outside gives a nice view and a little peace and quiet after a busy day. The community has been given a Silver Award by the National Association of Home Builders as one of the best places for people over 55, recognized as Senior Community of the Year by the Massachusetts Apartment Association, and named among the top senior living communities in the U.S. News & World Report. So, whether someone's looking for a safe, friendly spot with a variety of care and activity options, or they want a place that lets them keep living life their way with support when it's needed, Waterstone of Lexington has set up a comfortable, well-thought-out home with all these services and more included.
