The Elms at Clarksburg Village - Encore

The Elms at Clarksburg Village - Encore sits in Clarksburg, Maryland, inside a big 775-acre planned community, and is set up as a 55+ apartment community with senior care in mind, offering assisted living, Alzheimer's care, and regular residential care. Apartments come in one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts with nine floor plans, and some places have features like sunrooms, high ceilings, lofts, patios or balconies, and gas fireplaces, while every apartment offers full kitchens with granite countertops, stainless Whirlpool ENERGY STAR appliances, gas ranges, 42-inch cabinets, full-size washers and dryers, and hardwood floors in living areas, with lots of storage from walk-in closets, linen closets, and coat closets. The building's a smoke-free elevator facility with secure access and parking on the surface lot, and there's also the option to rent a private garage for a fee, plus extra storage lockers and bicycle storage if you need it. The Elms makes living with pets easy, with up to two cats or dogs allowed per apartment (each under 50 pounds), pet rent, and a pet deposit, and offers a landscaped courtyard, stretches of green, and plenty of places to walk. For staying active or keeping hobbies, there's a resort-style pool with a sundeck, an outdoor grill, a fitness center open all day and night with both cardio and strength-training gear, a yoga and stretching studio with Fitness On Demand™, biking activities, and hiking trails that connect directly to Ovid Hazen Wells Park. People can enjoy computer access, printers, and a cozy coffee spot at the on-site cyber café, and the community's wired with Wi-Fi all over, making it easy to relax or socialize in shared spaces from the pool to the common lounge. Kitchens and living spaces are made for comfort, with granite counters, full-size appliances, and an easy layout, plus there's hassle-free maintenance by a professional team. The Elms is close to the Shady Grove Metro, MARC train station, grocery stores, and restaurants, making it easy to get around or pick up what's needed, and the property keeps wheelchair access in mind for easy movement. There's anti-spam and anti-crawler protection on their network to protect information and devices. Hours run from Monday to Saturday for help in the office, and tours can be virtual or in-person. The management team has won awards, but what stands out most is day-to-day living set up to help people age comfortably, safely, and with the right kind of support in a real neighborhood.
