Aegis Living Kirkland Waterfront

Aegis Living Kirkland Waterfront sits by Lake Washington, nestled among trees and wetlands that give the place a gentle, treehouse feeling, and the large windows in the dining room let in sun and offer wide views of nature, while a big stone fireplace adds to the cozy, Northwest-style setting that's got shades of both rustic woods and seaside living, with the inside showing off Italian-inspired design touches like beach wood, a mural of "The Birth of Venus" in the Grotto Solarium, and bright, open rooms that try to feel like an Italian villa by the water. The community has 126 licensed beds and offers studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and companion apartment layouts, which is good for couples with different care needs, and pets are welcome. The care levels go from light assisted living up to memory care, transitional care, respite or day stay, and end-of-life care, and there are always care managers and nurses around, staffing the place and providing onsite nursing seven days a week, as well as physical, occupational, and speech therapies, massage, visiting physicians, and geriatric psychiatry. The building has a sun-filled dining room with a wine deco for festive meals, a private hall for special events, a theater, a full-service salon and barber, a little pub, a massage room, and a gym, plus gathering spots like a bright lobby, a covered porch, lounge, and an outdoor grotto with an Italian mosaic fountain that's good for relaxing or socializing. The activities they offer try to keep folks engaged, busy, and happy, from group events to creative projects, and there's a life enrichment program meant to give residents a sense of purpose, along with lakeshore walking right nearby. Housekeeping, laundry, and all-day dining are part of daily life, and overall, the staff try to welcome everyone as individuals, focusing on comfort, care, and well-being in a setting with a bit of Northwest charm and coastal elegance.
