Bridgewater, MA – Callahan, Inc. broke ground on a new state-of-the-art senior living community in Wayland, MA this past November. The Carriage House at Lee’s Farm will feature 62-units with specialized wings dedicated to assisted living and memory care.
Callahan Inc., is serving as the general contractor on the project and will be self performing all site-work. The two-story, wood framed structure is approximately 54,000 square feet. The community will include a mix of studios, along with one and two bedroom units. Once complete, 33 of the units will be dedicated to assisted living residents and 29 units on the first floor will be dedicated to memory loss residents.
“Constructing senior housing with units designated for both those who want assisted living capabilities, but also those who may be experiencing memory loss is a tremendous asset to the community,” said Joe Roche, project executive at Callahan, Inc.
The Carriage House will offer a number of features and services including: common and private dining rooms, café, fitness center, sunroom, library, salon and barber shop, brain gym, activity rooms, open and enclosed courtyards, a lounge, housekeeping and laundry, state-of-the-art emergency call system, theatre and art studio. In addition, services will include wellness and exercise programs, a full-time social coordinator, a short-stay respite program, medication monitoring, scheduled transportation and computer training.
Traditional apartments will include kitchenettes, television, internet and phone access. Generation program apartments will feature private and semi-private apartments in a separate and secure environment for individuals with Alzheimer’s and other memory impairments. There are a limited number of upgraded apartments, also available.
The Carriage House at Lee’s Farm is currently under construction and located off Route 20 and minutes from I-95 in Wayland. Click here to learn more about the project from the owner, Northbridge Companies. Construction is expected to be completed by fall 2013.
