Carmichael Seniors is a high-end Life Plan Community nestled into an established and eclectic neighborhood; the contemporary design takes cues from adjacent mid-century modern homes. Immediately adjacent to a K-12 private school the community boundaries are designed to be as porous as possible while maintaining a required level of security. The location further encourages interaction with the greater neighborhood. Planned programs allow residents to volunteer at the school and students to volunteer at Carmichael Seniors, making this community truly inter-generational. The Independent Living provides all units with convenient access to the Village Square, the central hub of activity for the community. This encourages residents to get out and take advantage of the programs offered. Assisted Living and Memory care buildings are located further back on the site, allowing for an additional layer of security. As a resident’s needs change, they may need to leave their unit, but they won’t need to leave the community. Allowing them to call the same place home, with the same friends bringing a needed sense familiarity.
