Now is the time for you to choose a floor plan with intention. Park Place of Elmhurst offers the Dover Traditional and Oxford Signature, along with 14 other independent living apartment models, to perfectly meet your needs, whatever they might be.

You might just like the idea of having a fresh apartment layout. There might be something important to you about having an open floor plan so there’s a nice flow from the kitchen to the living room to the dining room. Each apartment comes with a washer/dryer unit to help you maintain your independence.

Have Your Storage Needs Changed Recently?

Getting rid of items that previously occupied space in your home may inspire you to seek out a new space.

Having storage space in your home or community is essential. Park Place of Elmhurst offers shared spaces where you can explore new hobbies and enriching connections, such as our creative studio, club/game room. We also have spacious storage lockers for each apartment model, available upon request, in addition to secure, underground parking.

What Are Your Current and Future Care Needs?

When considering the features you need in an Independent Living apartment, it’s crucial to plan for the future. You should always discuss your future care needs with your doctor, spouse or loved ones throughout the process.

The goal is to find a space that meets your lifestyle needs and allows you to more easily age in place. Senior living designs should be flexible enough to meet your changing needs, providing a vibrant atmosphere in which you can enjoy everything a community offers. It is vital that you think about how the space could assist you in the future, whether you are moving into an Independent Living or Assisted Living community.
