The Meadows at Brier Creek is a 55+ community in Raleigh, North Carolina, that has a range of living choices for seniors, including independent living, assisted living, Alzheimer's and memory care, nursing and long-term care, and even respite care when folks need a little break, and since it's a rental property, people who live there can pick from one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments, with the one-bedrooms at about 684 square feet and the two-bedrooms at around 895 square feet, each coming with one bathroom, appliances, and stackable washers and dryers right in the apartment, so nobody has to walk far with a heavy laundry basket, and every apartment has a private patio or deck where you can sit out and look over the well-kept grounds, the pool, or the walking trails which are nice for a stroll. The community is made up of a three-story building with 96 apartments, and for folks who don't want to deal with stairs, there are elevators-plus large bedrooms, accessible bathrooms for getting around safely, and pull cords next to the bed and bath for emergencies, which is something that gives some peace of mind. Meadows at Brier Creek is managed by Pendergraph Management, LLC and is an income restricted community, which helps to keep rent more affordable for seniors. There's a secure entry system at the building doors, so folks can feel a bit safer, and the whole place is pet friendly if you like to have a cat or dog around, which is always good for company.
There's quite a list of things to do and places to relax, like a library, a movie theatre room, a computer center, a fitness center with treadmills and bikes, a billiards room with a pool table, outdoor swimming pool with a sun deck and a gazebo, plus picnic spots and community lounges with soft couches and entertainment centers on every floor in case you want to chat or just watch something on TV. Residents can join in different planned activities, and there's scheduled transportation for group events and shopping trips every week, which makes it easier if driving isn't on the table anymore. The apartments also have nice views from the decks and patios, some look over the pool, walking trails, or just the landscaped grounds, which are kept up nicely. Folks who want to see for themselves can book a tour to visit, meet the staff and some of the people who live there, and get a feel for the community. Meadows at Brier Creek is nestled in the Brier Creek area, which has a natural setting around it, and because it's a Continuing Care Retirement Community, residents have a path to more care if their needs change over time, which a lot of people find important when thinking about the future.
