Watershed

Watershed is a large senior living community in Laurel, Maryland, built in 2025 with new construction townhomes called Halston Townhomes, where residents can choose open, modern floor plans with up to five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, a 4th story loft, and a rooftop terrace if they want a bit of outdoor living, and you'll find kitchens in the back of the main level with big islands, quartz counters, walk-in pantries, and appliances like a refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, wall oven, and microwave with options for a deck off the kitchen, which is handy when you like to bring food outside, and they've got central air conditioning, heat pumps, forced air heating with programmable thermostats, and a public water supply, so comfort's covered in every season, and inside there's carpet, a combination of kitchen, dining, and living spaces, walk-in closets, and tub-showers in the bathrooms for easy access. Each townhome sits on concrete or asphalt driveways with private parking, plus they've made sure to add energy-efficient appliances and in-unit laundry on the bedroom level, so everything's close at hand, and the owner's bedroom features a walk-in closet and en suite bathroom, while the other bedrooms have generous closets. Watershed includes a lot of community features like fitness and spa rooms, arts and crafts rooms, a library, game rooms, and outdoor walking paths, and people gather for movie nights, music programs, and resident-run activities to help folks make friends. There's restaurant-style dining, a dining room, or all-day dining with special menu options for dietary needs like diabetes or allergies. Community staff help with things like housekeeping, moving in, laundry, and concierge support, and you'll find medication management, help with daily activities, and 24-hour supervision with an emergency alert system if you ever need someone quickly. Some areas are set up for those who need memory care due to Alzheimer's or dementia, with special security to keep them safe and services meant to slow memory loss. Watershed is a continuing care retirement community (CCRC), so residents can stay as their needs change, whether they want to live independently, need assistance, or need medical and rehabilitation care. The community is set up with programs focused on conservation, environmental care, and water management-there's even special environmental monitoring and activities for people who like that sort of thing, and all the homes and grounds are designed to work with the environment, using ideas from watershed conservation. The location is near schools like Meade High School and by Fort Meade, BW Parkway, Rt 32, and commuter trains, which makes visits easy for families and keeps residents connected to the local area, and that's something nice when community matters so much.
