SARATOGA SPRING — Local and regional politicians gathered with members of the Saratoga business community on Thursday, December 1 for the ribbon cutting and grand opening of The Summit at Saratoga, a 110-unit senior independent living community for those 55 and older. Located at 1 Perry Road, a short drive from an array of retail conveniences on Route 50, including major grocery and big box outlets and minutes from bustling downtown Saratoga, the three-story apartment-style community features a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments ranging in size from 715 to 1,225 square feet on 12 landscaped acres. Forty percent of these units are currently reserved by individuals and couples from Saratoga, Warren, and Washington counties, as well as out-of-state locations such as Vermont, Massachusetts and Florida. “It’s rewarding to have this project finally open and welcoming so many new faces,” said Summit Senior Living, LLC Principal Adam DeSantis. “Our goal was to always provide a relaxed, independent and maintenance-free lifestyle that could serve this rapidly growing market. By being so close to an array of retail conveniences, including major grocery and big box outlets and downtown Saratoga for those who enjoy fine dining and other attractions, I feel we have certainly accomplished that objective.” “This market is underserved in terms of luxurious, yet affordable housing options for those over 55 who don’t want the hassles of home ownership,” added Town of Wilton Supervisor Art Johnson. “This new community not only provides a full range of activities to keep seniors active in mind, body and spirit, but also a safe, physical living environment that includes free transportation services to medical appointments and 24-hour emergency services through an emergency call and fire detection system. I am delighted to welcome Adam, his staff and all the new residents to our community.” Modeled after Summit Senior Living’s sister communities in Glenville (The Meadows at Glenwyck) and North Greenbush (Eastwyck Village), The Summit at Saratoga has no entrance fees. Each apartment offers upscale carpeting and floor tile, granite countertops, balconies/patios for all apartments, full-size washers and dryers in each apartment, and central air conditioning. Included in each month’s rent is cable television and Internet service, water, sewer, and trash. Rental fees also offer access to the Senior Engaged Life® (SEL) program, which allows residents to enjoy everything from regular speakers and outings to Pilates and cooking classes. SEL services also include links and referrals to community service providers, educational programs, health and wellness activities, finance/legal resources, transportation services for shopping and medical visits, as well as a daily continental breakfast. Other community amenities include: an integrated clubhouse featuring an indoor pool and hot tub, sauna, fitness center, full-service day spa, tavern, movie theater and a variety of other recreational areas, including bocce ball and pickle ball courts.
