Fulton School Residences stands in Weymouth, Massachusetts, where the old Alice B. Fulton School once echoed with classroom voices, and now it offers affordable living for adults age 62 and over. The building was restored to keep its historic charm, and there are oversized windows, original details, and modern touches woven throughout the apartments, which come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts. Folks who move in will find accessible, safe homes with air conditioning, fully equipped kitchens, and wheelchair access, including showers and common areas designed for easy movement, so getting around the place isn't a problem. There's a real sense of community here, with a large community room for social gatherings and organized activities planned by the staff to help neighbors meet and befriend each other, and there are extra programs meant to boost well-being and outlook.
The location puts residents close to public transportation, making trips to town or visits with family more manageable, and there's parking for those who drive. For people with pets, small dogs and cats are welcome within certain weight limits. There's laundry on-site, extra storage space, and dry cleaning drop-off for ease. Residents can choose different levels of assistance based on what support they might need, with a friendly, well-trained staff on hand to help every day. The building holds 63 apartments over 36,824 square feet and has been carefully maintained since its renovation in 2009. The property details, from rental rates to occupancy history, are all tracked and managed by the Fulton School Residences Management Office. The Massachusetts Historical Commission recognizes the preservation of its history, and the building serves as a tribute to generations of Weymouth families and students. These senior apartments fill the need for comfortable, affordable housing that's a little different from the standard apartment complex, with a schedule full of chances for social, recreational, and educational involvement in a setting that's both new and familiar.
