Growing old doesn’t have to mean slowing down. Independent Living in Northern Virginia
offers a lifestyle for the elderly that allows them be independence and remain active, while residing in a safe and secure environment with other individuals their own age. Having the comforts that one had become accustomed to over the years, along with the advantage of being in a protected area, can give seniors the chance to concentrate on social activities and whatever hobbies and interests they wish to pursue.

Each apartment comes with a full kitchen, including all appliances, and there are large walk in closets and hook-ups for the internet, telephone and TV in both the living area and the bedroom. Each unit is equipped with a washer and dryer as well, and all utilities, including basic cable, are figured into the monthly rent. Even housekeeping services are provided to assure that all of the residents live in a clean, healthy environment.
