Eco's Adult Family Home sits at 922 North 163rd Street in Shoreline, WA, and is part of the Highland Terrace neighborhood close to the Shorewood High School, right within the Shoreline School District, and it's got one parking spot, which is fair enough since they're regulated for up to 5 elderly adults, so there's not going to be too much traffic in and out anyway, and you see, this place is licensed through Washington's Department of Social Services, which means they go by the state's care home rules. The home itself isn't huge, about 1,500 square feet on a 7,039 square foot lot, and you'll find four bedrooms and one-and-three-quarter bathrooms inside, which works out so nobody feels too crowded, and there are fully furnished senior community rooms where folks can sit, relax, and talk, since it's meant to feel like a home more than a facility. Manuel Eco is the main care person here, and staff on site stay awake around the clock, so if someone needs help-say for the bathroom or in the middle of the night-they'll have some support, and they also can handle insulin shots if it's needed. There's space for pets like cats and dogs, and staff speak fluent English, which folks tend to like for easy communication, and they've got the training to help out with everyday needs but aren't doing heavy medical work, though they do offer assisted living care and some memory care services if someone's starting to forget things or needs a bit more checking in, and they're able to do incontinence care too.
The house has game rooms, a reading room, a Jacuzzi, a steam room, and a health area, so there's always something to keep busy with, plus a hairdresser for trims and a bit of pampering, and out in the yard, there's space for walking or just sitting in the fresh air. Nights can get social, with things like movie entertainment, music, fitness, art activities, and planned evening gatherings. If someone has special nutrition needs, the kitchen crew can work out a plan for meals, and daily programs cover things like art, music, and movement, so the days don't just slip away. Transportation is available to get residents to doctor appointments, errands, or spiritual services, so nobody feels stuck or cut off, and there's a real focus on making sure folks can keep up with what matters to them. Eco's Adult Family Home, which last sold in January 2018 for $559,950 with parcel ID 3293700136, aims to keep things friendly, straightforward, and comfortable for older adults who don't want the feel of a big institution.
