Seacrest Pines sits in Barnegat, New Jersey, close to Barnegat Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, and the community offers a peaceful setting with easy trips to New York, Philadelphia, and Atlantic City because you're never too far from grocery stores, retail, banks, or a movie theater in Manahawkin, and the whole thing's built with active adults in mind, starting with age 55 and older, so when someone comes to live here, they can choose from around 340 brand new single-level ranch homes, most with two to three bedrooms and two bathrooms, attached two-car garages, optional lofts, and open floor plans, some with a second story, and all homes as spec homes, built by Horton, with a few options depending on where they are in the building process, and homes come with first-floor primary suites that have spacious walk-in closets, private bathrooms, Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, phones, and furnished rooms if wanted.
This spot is meant for both independent seniors, those needing daily help, and those looking for full nursing care, which means people can stay even if their needs change, as it's a continuing care retirement community that covers independent living, assisted living with help for bathing, dressing, medication, and personal care, memory care in secure, safe areas for Alzheimer's and dementia, and skilled nursing for round-the-clock medical attention, rehabilitation, wound care, and all types of clinical care, offering a place where people can age in place without having to move away or give up what matters, and there are also board and care homes right in the neighborhood for folks wanting more of a small, homey setup.
Residents have support like a 24-hour call system, on-site management, supervision, medical services aimed at safety, medication help, non-ambulatory care, and comprehensive attention to health, plus there's respite care too for when a primary caregiver needs a break. The community is gated, has RV and boat storage, is handicap accessible, and welcomes pets, so people can bring their furry companions, and you'll find walking paths and outdoor spots that feel peaceful, because there are views, green spaces, and places to hike or bike if that's what you like to do, and you can take part in outdoor activities like golf, tennis, pickleball, bocce ball, shuffleboard, softball, horseshoes, fishing, and boating, and there's a clubhouse with a pool and patio space, fitness center, billiards room, arts and activity rooms, meeting space, spa and wellness area, business center, library, and game room, providing plenty of places to gather, have fun, or just relax.
For people that care about a maintenance-free lifestyle or having choices, the association takes care of most upkeep, the staff handles housekeeping, laundry, transportation, concierge services, and move-in coordination, while residents can join in social activities, learning groups, scheduled programs, or just spend time in community spaces like the dining room with all-day dining, restaurant-style meals, and options for allergies or specialized diets, and there's a movie theater on the grounds too. The buildings and services are set up to help people get around easily, and different living options let residents pick how much help they want, from living on their own with support if needed, to getting full medical care, with the ability to stay put as their needs change.
