Liberty Arms sits in Wauconda near the old charm of historic Larkdale Row and offers affordable senior apartments with one and two-bedroom floor plans in a country setting, though shopping and main roads remain close by, which makes things easier for residents who don't want to drive far to get their groceries or meet friends. The three-story elevator building has 119 apartments set up for independent affordable senior housing, and every apartment comes with things like a full eat-in kitchen, large bedrooms, spacious bathrooms with walk-in and wheelchair accessible showers, and heating or air units residents control themselves, so it's comfortable year-round no matter the weather outside.
Seniors living here enjoy housekeeping, laundry rooms on every floor, maintenance-free living, and parking spots just for residents. They don't have to give up their dogs or cats but there are some weight limits, and the building has modern amenities, including lots of natural light, lounges, a community room/dining hall, a Great Room with a kitchen for group events, and a library, so folks can read or play cards and games anytime they like. The complex features elevators for easy access between floors and keeps everything smoke-free indoors, which helps keep the air clean.
There are plenty of activities like social events, arts and crafts, devotional gatherings, cards, and community outings, and sometimes outings or scheduled transportation for folks who want to get out and about a little, plus transportation is offered at cost for residents who need it. Seniors can expect supportive services, and nurses and doctors are either on staff or on call, and on top of that, Liberty Arms has podiatrist and dentist visits and pharmacy delivery so people don't have to worry too much about leaving home for those needs. Homecare aides offer companionship and some non-medical support, and hospice and respite are available, too.
Utility bills like gas, electricity, and water are included at some level, so folks don't have too many bills on their plate. The building has indoor and outdoor common spaces, and those who want to enjoy the fresh air find plenty of spots outside to sit and visit. Liberty Arms has a beauty and barber service for haircuts and getting cleaned up, and the community always welcomes those who want to age in place, meaning residents won't have to move again as their needs change. Everything about the place aims to make life more comfortable for seniors, whether they prefer staying active or just want a quiet home with support available if needed.
