22 Aug Modern Senior Living? At Westerwood, it’s Not an Oxymoron
Can a senior living community be modern and chic? If you ask any of the residents of Westerwood—a sprawling 23-acre modern senior living community in Columbus, Ohio—the answer is a resounding YES!
Opened in 1978, Westerwood is in the midst of a campus-wide transformation to meet the needs of a new generation of seniors that includes ongoing renovations to our Garden apartment homes, new outdoor amenities and refreshed common areas. The goal is to cater to today’s sophisticated seniors who want to give up their chores and responsibilities, not their sense of style.
Newly Renovated, Senior Living Apartments for a New Generation of Seniors
Tucked away in a quiet garden setting, The Gardens at Westerwood affords residents a tranquil, private setting with easy access to all the amenities that make Westerwood a vibrant community.
Each contemporary senior living apartment is designed by a professional interior designer and inspired by the needs and standards of our residents who believe retirement homes can—and should—be just as stylish and contemporary as the homes they love. New residents have three interior design options to choose from with custom upgrades available. Our spacious senior apartments are being updated as they become available and offer:
- Up to 1,100 feet of space
- Plenty of windows to let in natural light
- A contemporary, open-concept layout
- Modern stainless-steel appliances
- Kitchen island with additional counter and storage space (in select models)
- Designer flooring, cabinets and countertops
- One or two bedrooms
- Two bathrooms
- A private patio
- Spectacular views of our gardens
Fresh Dining Options in a Refreshed Environment
To complement our newly expanded dining options, we’ve lightened and brightened the walls and floors of our community dining room. We also added modern tables and chairs, along with tasteful artwork to provide an elegant, resort-like retreat that elevates the entire dining experience.
When it Comes to Outdoor Living, the Sky’s the Limit
One of the things that sets Westerwood apart from other senior living communities in Columbus is our beautiful wooded campus with its own natural preserve. Here, you can enjoy peaceful walks along our outdoor trails, marvel at the beauty of more than 200 species of birds, and admire the personal gardens created and cared for by our residents.
We’ve also updated our outdoor amenities, starting with a renovated courtyard that now includes a firepit, bocce Ball court and putting green. There’s also a new al fresco dining space where residents can enjoy a relaxing meal outdoors with good friends (both human and furry). Exciting news for pet lovers—plans are currently in the works to build a community dog park on campus.
Like Our Residents, Our Community Keeps Getting Better with Age
Now is an exciting time for staff, residents and their families who are witnessing the transformation in real time—and reaping its rewards. As a nonprofit community, we have the luxury of being able to reinvest funds back into our community. We are laser-focused on one mission—to ensure residents are living their best lives.
But residents here aren’t just silent observers. Many of the ideas for new renovations, refreshes and additions have come directly from them. This type of ongoing collaboration and mutual respect is what makes Westerwood such a friendly, close-knit community.
