Essex Senior Rentals sits at 5469 and 5471 Westshire Circle in Waunakee, offering senior apartments built for adults 55 and older who want to keep their independence but still appreciate extra safety and comfort, and that's the sort of place where you'll find big bedrooms with carpet, high ceilings with fans, spacious bathrooms with both tubs and showers, plus kitchens with a stove, fridge, and dishwasher, and good storage inside the apartments with spacious closets, in-unit washer and dryer, and plenty of windows with blinds to let in sun or keep things private, and when it comes to the building itself there's underground parking if you need it, locked and intercom access for security, and the staff there aims to care for folks like family, giving individual attention in a warm and cozy setting. The community features places to gather, like a large common room with a fireplace, computer and puzzle or game rooms, a library, and even a pool table, and folks can often join coffee hours, card clubs, potlucks, bingo, BBQs, and all kinds of planned activities meant to help people enjoy each day, make friends, and learn something new or just stay busy. There's also van service to help people get around, and the goal is always to help people maintain as much independence as possible, whether they want to get involved or just enjoy the peace and quiet, and a dedicated team can help explain options or even guide tours of senior communities if you need help figuring things out. The apartments are available at both market rates and under Section 42, giving more flexibility for different budgets, though tenants do pay all utilities. While Essex Senior Rentals is close to hospitals, doctors, and other activities in Waunakee, and has a strong focus on housing that's comfortable and convenient for older adults, it isn't a part of the Elderwerks network and no specific care services or amenities beyond what's listed are mentioned, but the place is built to provide a safe, supportive home where folks can age in place with confidence.
