Waterstone at Wellesley is a joint venture by EPOCH Senior Living and National Development. A Grossman's Hardware store that stood empty for nearly 20 years was razed in June 2010 to make space for the project. The community employs 50 staff led by executive director Kristine Tilton.
The 207,742 s/f Waterstone at Wellesley includes 134 apartments for seniors 62 and older. It features independent and assisted living rental apartments, a fitness center, pool, theater, restaurant-style dining, putting green, a riverfront walking trail and underground parking garage. The community is situated along the Charles River and behind a CVS pharmacy and a Newton-Wellesley Hospital ambulatory surgical center. These tenants are part of the Waterstone at Wellesley development.
Elkus Manfredi Architects is project architect, Wellesley Design Consultants provided interior design services, and Cranshaw Construction was general contractor.
Based in Waltham, EPOCH Senior Living is a regional provider of quality senior living options, including independent and assisted living, skilled nursing and rehabilitation, and memory care. EPOCH Senior Living is committed to providing residences that enable seniors to enjoy a comfortable and dignified lifestyle in gracious surroundings.
