Guardian Place

Guardian Place is a senior apartment community in Richmond's Scott's Addition, set on 33 landscaped acres with easy access to I-195, where adults aged 55 and older can let go of homeownership duties and find a home with comfort and support, and in these apartments, you'll find bedrooms with closets, some with in-unit laundry, and all with full kitchens that have electric ranges, ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, and breakfast bars, and there's also card-operated laundry on each floor if your apartment doesn't have its own, so washing clothes is usually convenient. The buildings offer studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans, lots of which are renovated, many are wheelchair accessible, and all the common areas and bathrooms have features that make life easier and safer for seniors, including individually controlled electric air conditioning, emergency response systems, and monitored pull cords for round-the-clock safety. There's building maintenance 24 hours a day, controlled entry, and friendly staff who know how to help seniors, plus they keep things smoke-free and the grounds always look well-kept if you like to walk outside or garden. People often gather in the social spaces like the library, TV lounge, activities room, or the outdoor seating areas, and you'll usually find a full schedule of events, educational seminars, recreation, and entertainment, which means there's always a way to meet new people your age or try something new, and if you need help getting around town, transportation services are on offer, parking is on-site, and all amenities are close and easy for residents to reach. Guardian Place offers care for those who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or managing medicines, provides assisted living and memory care for seniors with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, and also gives access to independent living and home care services, so if life changes, the support can change with you. You'll also find spa services and a beauty salon for self-care, gardening options if you want to stay active outside, plus the grounds have walking paths for fresh air, and if you use private funds and prefer month-to-month leases, that's possible too. Guardian Place fits people who value affordable, accessible living, plenty of chances to stay active and social, and want the comfort of knowing help and security are always close by if needed.
