The Chamberlin

The Chamberlin sits right on the Chesapeake Bay in Hampton's Fort Monroe neighborhood, and it's easy to see why folks notice the grand lobby with its old-world style and big soaring ceilings. Residents can use the indoor heated pool, walk the trails by the water, or relax in the rooftop solarium with its terrace patio or the comfortable social spaces throughout the community, like the game room, lounge, and library. The apartments come in spacious one- and two-bedroom floor plans, with full kitchens, granite countertops, and most have walk-in closets and big windows that let in views of the water. There's an in-home washer and dryer, step-in showers, and extra storage comes with most units too, making things easier. People often gather at The Chanel Bistro Cafe or enjoy the various waterfront restaurants and the grand piano bar, and Sunday Brunch is open to the public, so there's always a bit of activity. Pet owners can bring their animals, as the place is pet-friendly, and the building has monitored access and an emergency call system if needed. Residents don't worry about mowing the lawn, paying utility bills, or any of the regular chores because housekeeping, maintenance, and even housecleaning are included, so life stays pretty simple. There's always something to do, whether attending social events, using the modern fitness center, joining planned activities and outings, taking fitness classes, or simply exploring the beaches, boardwalks, and biking paths nearby. There's 24-hour concierge service, transportation options, and a staff that keeps a friendly, family-like atmosphere. The community offers independent senior living and has amenities for those needing extra support, such as assisted living, memory care, nursing and rehab care, adult day care, and home health services. Residents can enjoy chef-prepared meals in restaurant-style dining spaces full of natural light, or cook for themselves if they'd rather, and there's a computer center, club room, and wellness programs for anyone wanting to keep busy. The Chamberlin offers a maintenance-free lifestyle with all-inclusive services, so people get time to pursue hobbies, socialize, and enjoy the views, and there's always an option to do more-or less-depending on the day.
