Lincoln Gardens sits on the west side of Columbus, Ohio, right near the intersection of Sturbridge Rd and Beacon Hill Rd, just a mile from Interstate 270 and close to West Broad Street, and when pulling up, you'll see trees, grass, nicely landscaped grounds, and a peaceful feeling that comes from the curved pathways lit for walking or sitting under the clouds. This assisted living and retirement apartment community is for adults 55 and older, and the apartments are all garden-style on a single level, with 108 total units including both one- and two-bedroom options, and some apartments are income-based while a few are at market rate. Each apartment has its own entrance for privacy, plus features like central air, ceiling fans, stove, refrigerator, wall-to-wall carpet, cable TV hook-up, and washer and dryer hookups, while some units include accessibility features for seniors. Residents have the peace of mind that comes from on-site management, 24-hour emergency maintenance, and community features like coin laundry, a community room, and patios, with water, sewer, and trash included in the rent.
The grounds offer nature views and places to stroll, and management handles all the outside chores and maintenance, so there's no need to worry about yard work any longer. Residents meet specific age and income rules, and qualified residents over 55 can enjoy apartment living with a homelike feel and get help with daily needs when necessary through assisted living, memory care, and other services like home care, rehabilitation care, and respite care as needs change, all among peers in a comfortable neighborhood. The community is pet-friendly for one small pet under 25 pounds. The community provides chef-prepared meals, planned activities for physical, mental, and emotional health, and a cozy environment with relaxing seating areas and gentle lighting. Many daily needs are within easy reach, including bus lines, shopping, pharmacies, medical offices, restaurants, churches, and the nearby Doctors Hospital West.
Outdoors, there are landscaped pathways, mature trees, and grassy areas, and indoors there's a cafe serving coffee, teas, and light snacks, along with smoke detectors and safety features for residents' health and independence. The on-site team helps with home maintenance and supports residents with everyday needs such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, as well as special care for memory challenges if required. Scheduled tours let prospective residents visit, walk around the grounds, and talk with staff in person, as hours of operation aren't posted and require a call to arrange. The facility has received awards for resident satisfaction, and offers a full calendar of social, educational, and entertaining activities to keep everyone active and engaged, with access to nearby hospitals and services if specialized medical care is ever needed. Lincoln Gardens is recognized as an affordable and comfortable choice for seniors who want a safe, convenient place to relax among friends, take part in activities, and have support close by.
