A welcoming atmosphere draws you in with warm hospitality and security as your guest or care arrive. The layering of painted wainscotting, large scale pattern tiled floors, and a hand-crafted Low Country chandelier all set the interior theme for the entire community. A double-height light filled Living Room is located off the IL Lobby Reception and adjacent to business lounge and access to the resort-style pool area. Color palettes continue through the carpet patterns and furnishings as the details lean toward a modern interpretation of history.

A cozy atmosphere is created in the Assisted Living Florida Room. It includes a double-sided fireplace, built-in cabinetry, and the continued use of textured tiles, light fixtures and fabrics. Stained planked ceilings anchor the space add additional warmth and character.

Maestro’s Independent Living Bar Lounge is a social gathering place of the entire community. A nod to the lakeside feel with planked walls, stained wood ceilings, earth toned carpet and globe light fixtures entice any resident to meet up with friends for cocktail hour at the retro inspired bar. The dinner experience is elevated in the formal dining with the transition to linen draped table clothes, wine room, and stained wood ceilings, creating an elevated lakeside dining atmosphere.

Buffet service off of the main kitchen in Assisted Living dining creates independence for all meals as requested. Behind the buffet, vintage fruit crate labels add local history and art. A modern retro feel is felt with the combination of mossy green and turquoise colors with brass accents throughout the dining venue. The softness of the curves in the seating, mirrors, and light fixtures creates a themed diner café experience.

Off the formal dining is the carefully curated private dining that creates an eye-catching intimate space for private gatherings with family and friends.

Apartments come with premium upgrades in a variety of floor plans and remove all the worry of homeownership. Innovative technology integrates into beautifully appointed residences with full-size kitchens, private balconies, and built-in safety features. Transitional in palette with recessed shaker-style cabinets, quartz counters, planked luxury vinyl flooring, modern pendants, and stainless-steel appliances all allow for residents to add their own personal style. Large windows filter in natural light with direct access to a screen porch or balcony. Large windows in all bedrooms bring in natural light with large closets, carpet, and adjacent bathrooms.
