Searstone - Senior Living - Cary, North Carolina
SearStone, scheduled for completion in mid-2009, is destined to be a community unlike any other. Built on a portion of the remaining 75 acres of Cary’s historic Sears family farm by architect Bill Sears, this project’s vision reflects the dream of elegant and vibrant living.
The continuing care retirement development, targeted for those aged 62 and “better”, is located on 25 acres and will include 46 duplex dwellings, 232 apartments, 23 condominiums, a clubhouse, and a 155-bed healthcare center. A 2.5-acre lake, surrounded by hardscape and a decorative railing, will serve as the centerpiece of the village, providing an area the general public and age-restricted population can enjoy. The clubhouse will offer outdoor seating where meals will be served lakeside.
The new Specialty Village model is an intentional departure from the spread-out, car-centered, suburban way of life. It will deliver walkable, variety-filled neighborhoods with lively, shared public spaces, surrounded by an array of residence choices. Meticulous planning will put everyone’s daily desires within easy reach – and key goods and services within a 5-minute walk.
Phase II of the project includes construction of a conservatory that will provide cultural functions and activities.
