Sherman Glen sits at 1110 North Sherman Avenue in Madison, WI, and serves adults aged 55 and over who want different kinds of senior living, so you'll find independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, skilled nursing, and even options for home care, all under one community name, and the place has a verified record for being maintained well and staying affordable for many. Sherman Glen's apartments offer one-bedroom floor plans, sized around 725 square feet, and two-bedroom layouts coming in at about 860 square feet, all with at least one bathroom per unit and full kitchens, plus a choice of private patios or balconies if that suits you, while the lower floors have ground floor options for easier accessibility, and the whole building comes with elevator services, intercom entry, and professional management on site, which makes things run pretty smoothly most of the time without much hassle.
The apartments include air conditioning, ceiling fans, and basic utilities like heat and water covered, which is helpful when you're watching your spending, and if you like doing laundry without going far, you'll find laundry facilities on each floor. The property offers community-wide features, so seniors who aren't as mobile or just want a break from household chores will enjoy a community room with a kitchen for events, regular planned activities like holiday parties and happy hours, devotional gatherings, and other ways for residents to stay social and engaged throughout the year. Outdoor patios and landscaped grounds let you enjoy the outside when the weather's nice.
For folks with pets, Sherman Glen welcomes cats and dogs if they stay under the weight limits; though it's worth checking rules first before moving in. The building is close to public transit and there's both uncovered and underground parking offered, so residents and visitors can park as they need, plus daily transportation to the North East Side Senior Center and planned trips with front door pickup make it easier for those who don't drive to get out or run errands.
When extra help is needed, Sherman Glen's assisted living means support with daily things like bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, while secure memory care is available for seniors coping with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, including therapies made for those conditions. They also give options for residential care homes-these are shared homes in the neighborhood with live-in caregivers to help with bathing, dressing, or small daily tasks, and folks who prefer to remain in their original homes can get home care from trained aides that give companionship and non-medical help.
Floor plans are available for different unit types, so people can decide what layout fits their lifestyle, and the community fits those who want independent and maintenance-free living or who need routine care in a safe environment. Aid and Attendance VA benefits can be used here to help veterans and spouses cover some of the care costs if they qualify. Overall, Sherman Glen provides many choices for seniors in Madison, focusing on practical features, simple living, and reliable daily routines over anything fancy, and people tend to find it a good fit when looking for basic comforts and some company as the years go by.
