Willow Pond sits on a gentle hill at 891 Yadkinville Road in Mocksville, North Carolina, right above a quiet one-acre pond where deer sometimes come to visit, and residents like to watch from the back porch that faces the water. This is a three-story senior apartment community made up of 50 apartments, offering both one- and two-bedroom options, with sizes from 675 to 910 square feet, and rent prices that range from $355 to $570 for affordable senior housing. The whole building uses a secured entry code system, so only residents and approved guests get inside, and the building itself is non-smoking but there's a sheltered smoking area outside for people who need it.
Willow Pond was built for seniors who want some help but also want independence, because it provides both senior apartments and assisted living services for folks who might need support with everyday tasks. Six apartments work for people with physical disabilities, and half of those have roll-in showers. There are also a dozen apartments with step-in showers that's easier for residents who have trouble with tubs. All apartments have energy-efficient appliances and windows, helping conserve water and energy, and the rooms have vinyl tile floors that look like wood, and there's plenty of sunlight coming in during the day.
If you walk around the building, you'll see features designed for comfort, convenience, and connection. There's a fitness center with equipment seniors can use, and a computer center if you want to check email or read the news, plus a community room that's decorated nicely, with a kitchen and a big flat-screen TV for group events or movies. Organized activities fill the schedule, with social, physical, educational, and entertaining options meant to keep everyone involved-resident council activities get folks talking and moving and help people feel part of something. The staff is trained, friendly, and always around to help as needed, plus there's a community manager who's responsible for overseeing things, making sure the building is safe and the rules get followed.
Residents here enjoy outdoor seating, the walking trail around the pond, and that big back porch which tends to draw everyone when the weather's nice, and the overall feeling is quiet, relaxed, and neighborly, because many folks look out for each other. Meals and dining options are available, along with room amenities meant for comfort and safety, and health care services round out the support for anyone who needs extra help. Willow Pond is managed by Excel Property Management, Inc., and while there's no public information about the parking or which utilities are included, they've set up the building to keep life simple and safe for seniors who want a good place to live and a community to join.
