L.C. Hotchkiss Terrace sits in the Clovis, CA area and offers senior apartments for older adults, with different living options such as independent living and assisted living, so people get help based on what they need, and the building includes 75 one-bedroom apartments, each with a full kitchen, walk-in shower, carpeted floors, heating and air, and features for those who use a wheelchair or have trouble getting around; the community makes room for modern apartments, cottages, or even single-family homes, all on a well-kept property with eight acres of gardens. Residents here can keep household pets or assistance animals-though there are simple pet rules like registration and shots-while the community itself stays smoke-free everywhere, both inside and outside, with clear signs marking non-smoking areas. The property comes with safety features like a 24-hour security system, sprinklers, and two elevators, plus there's a secure entrance and lobby, mail room with mailboxes, computer room, library, laundry room with TV, trash disposal on every floor, and covered gated parking to make things a little easier for everyone.
There's a dining room for meals and a courtyard bistro with a rose garden and fountain, offering social spots for people to gather, and services like laundry, dry cleaning, basic housekeeping, and apartment repairs help keep things in order. People can count on long-term care and skilled nursing if health needs change, with personal care assistants, transportation services, diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and incontinence care available. Amenities include a fitness center, salon and barbershop, cable TV, Wi-Fi, game and activity rooms, and indoor common spaces. For social life, the staff arranges regular activities, arts and crafts, devotional groups, a Bible study, and educational programs, and there's a resident association so neighbors can connect. Walking and wheelchair help is available, and reasonable accommodations can be made for those with disabilities.
