Solista Charlotte by Cogir sits on 10 acres of greenery in a quiet suburban neighborhood, with woodland views all around, and the place has a focus on independent living for seniors who want both community and freedom. The community has a clear, published price range and breaks down its care types, and it accepts both men and women. Solista Charlotte offers several types of senior living including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and continuing care retirement options. Some assisted living and personal care services come from third-party providers for extra fees, so residents can add to what they need. The community is led by Executive Director Julie McCraith, and you'll find property managers who look after everyone's well-being.
Apartments range from studio to two-bedroom floor plans with sizes between 410 and 971 square feet. Residents get to pick between kitchenettes and full kitchens; some units have patios or balconies, and all have emergency call systems, climate control, and private bathrooms. There are options for pet-friendly apartments and visiting pets, too.
Meals get served in a café-style dining room, three times a day, with snacks, guest dining, and menu choices that suit diabetic or vegetarian diets. The chef uses fresh, seasonal ingredients. There's a full activities calendar with things like dance fitness, Tai Chi, Forever Fit classes, art studios, the Melody & Masterpiece program, Virtual Voyages for learning about new places, and music and social activities. The Pawsitive Health Program lets people spend time with animals, and the Memories in Motion program highlights residents' accomplishments and stories. Residents can enjoy games, Mahjong, gardening, group outings using a white shuttle bus, or trips offsite. Monthly lunch outings, dance parties, holiday events, and a resident ambassador program help newcomers feel welcome.
There are plenty of amenities: a beauty and barber shop, a billiard lounge, chapel, computer room, game room, library, activity and performance rooms, media room, and outdoor recreation areas with gardens, patios, and walking trails. The building is non-smoking inside, with locked mailboxes, elevators, business center, WiFi in the common areas, and guest parking.
For health and wellness, Solista Charlotte provides 24-hour staffing and safety features like controlled access, medical alert systems, and on-call services using the Lively Mobile Plus Device. There's wheelchair accessible showers, bathtubs, companion and help, therapies, hospice care, and medication support from visiting health services. Transportation is on hand for shopping or appointments, and there's a choice of parking lots for residents with cars. Housekeeping, linen service, laundry, maintenance, pest control, and trash removal are all covered. Faith services are available, with Catholic and other religious activities held regularly.
Solista Charlotte accepts both private pay and Veterans Aid benefits, plus check and credit card payments. The rent covers most amenities, and there's help for those selling their homes to move in. Many photos show off the community's dining and living spaces, floor plans, and scenic views. With modern features, a packed schedule of events, and a focus on supporting self-sufficient seniors, this community aims to provide comfort, companionship, and something to look forward to every day, all while letting residents keep their independence.
