Indoors, our retirement community has a lot to offer individuals who desire an active and independent lifestyle. We offer spacious and bright one- and two-bedroom suites, all enjoying courtyard or neighbourhood views.

As soon as you walk through our doors, you’ll enjoy our inviting ambiance, where residents, staff, and family have created a real sense of community. The character and open-concept layout of our home puts everyone at ease, as it’s bright, warm, and easy to navigate. If you aren’t cooking or baking in your private suite, you may find yourself chatting with friends over a delicious, freshly-prepared meal in our dining room, working out in our fitness room, or perhaps pursing a cherished hobby in one of our many other amenity spaces. You'll love our large interior courtyard with comfortable seating, manicured gardens, and a serene water feature, as well as our heated underground parking.
