Hills at Leander is a new apartment home community built in 2020 with 228 units designed for adults aged 62 and older, offering independent living as well as assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care retirement community services, so there's options for different levels of need. The community has one and two-bedroom apartments, plus some with three bedrooms, and each unit has a full kitchen with an all-electric stove, microwave, pantry, refrigerator, and dishwasher, along with 9-foot ceilings, walk-in closets, ceiling fans, and central air and heat, which makes it easier to stay comfortable in every season. There's ground floor, handicap-accessible units for folks with mobility challenges, and walk-in showers in the bathrooms. Residents get access to both indoor and outdoor spaces for socializing, including a clubroom, business center, movie or theater room, game room, TV lounge, art and crafts center, and a meeting room, so there's several places to gather for activities or just to visit with a neighbor.
Hills at Leander also has plenty of outdoor common areas, a dog park for walking pets, an outdoor grill area, and a swimming pool and hot tub for relaxation. The community welcomes cats and dogs, with a limit of two pets per unit and a maximum weight of 60 pounds, though some breed restrictions apply, which is nice for pet owners who want to keep their companions close. Recreational features go further with a fitness center, ballroom, and outdoor patio, so there's somewhere to stay active or enjoy the fresh air. Laundry rooms, extra storage, detached garages, uncovered parking, and recycling are all on-site, and the management includes things like fiber optic cable, tenant trash and water service, valet trash, and even some paid utilities in the rent, so it lightens the load for folks not wanting to worry about all the bills.
Residents at Hills at Leander can get personal care services like incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, ambulatory care, and specialized diabetic care management, and the property has a beautician and beauty salon on site in case you want to tidy up without going far. There's a new management team as of summer 2024 focused on improving community life and daily processes, so changes are ongoing to meet residents' needs. The property offers income-restricted lease terms, Section 8, and subsidized housing options. The location is close to public transportation, cafes, restaurants, parks, pharmacies, hospitals, physician offices, and a theater venue, and there's also transportation assistance within the local area in case residents need a ride. With air conditioning in every apartment, patios or balconies depending on the unit, walk-in closets, and five different floor plans, people can find the kind of setup that's most comfortable for them. Activities take place on-site to keep everyone engaged, so there's usually something to do or join in most days, and you can always enjoy quiet time in your own apartment or in the common areas.
