Deepwood Estates by Barclay House sits in Lexington and offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care for seniors, with private pet-friendly studio, one, and two-bedroom apartments where male and female residents can live comfortably. Residents choose from different care services like independent living if they're active, assisted living if they need some help, and memory care for those with dementia, and while the community doesn't provide direct healthcare, folks can use their own home health care providers for extra support. There are friendly staff and residents, live-in managers, and a variety of social and recreational activities, such as arts and crafts, games, billiards, group fitness, and scheduled outings, and the calendar stays busy with volunteer opportunities, classes, and field trips, so people have plenty to do with friends old and new.
The 3-story building has both indoor and outdoor common areas, like lounges with fireplaces, a game room, a TV and media room, libraries, walking paths, gardens, and atriums-there's even a billiard lounge, an activity room, and a business center. Residents have access to a private dining room for special meals, and the main dining room serves three chef-prepared meals each day that promote healthy eating, though some people have noticed meal changes since a recent ownership change that affected food quality and portion sizes. Housekeeping, linen services, and maintenance come weekly, along with laundry facilities available for personal use, and folks can pay online, so most chores get handled easily.
The apartments have their own kitchenettes with appliances, private baths with safety rails, wheelchair accessible showers, and most utilities like cable, electric, gas, sewer, and water are included in the monthly rent, which is all-inclusive on a month-to-month basis. High-speed WiFi is in the shared areas, and there's cable or satellite TV in each unit, so people can relax however they like. There are safety features like emergency response devices such as Lively Mobile Plus, plus 24/7 staff, and the building is easy to move through with barrier-free units and accessible floor plans.
People can bring their pets, including cats, and there's parking for residents, guests, and visitors, plus covered parking and guest accommodations overnight. Transportation is provided to appointments, shopping, and even off-site excursions, and a complimentary shuttle helps residents get where they need to go. The community has a salon, chapel, library, storage space, and mailboxes, with indoor and outdoor spaces set up for comfort and gathering together.
Deepwood Estates by Barclay House encourages doing things folks enjoy in good company, with an atmosphere focused on leisure and hobbies, whether in the garden, at a billiard table, or just sharing a meal. There are VA Aid Assistance services available, wellness and fitness programs, and specialized care for those who need it, so residents can age in place, stay active, and keep life as simple or as lively as they like. No smoking's allowed inside, and it stays quiet and safe for everyone. The location's close to shops, groceries, and medical care, making daily life easier for seniors and their families.
