About Gardens Care Senior Living - Homestead

Gardens Care Homestead Assisted Living is the assisted living building at the heart of the Homestead at Lakewood campus, at 2121 Wadsworth Boulevard in east Lakewood, Colorado. Set on a 4.25-acre former equestrian property with Southwestern, hacienda-style architecture, the main building pairs daily care with a campus that also includes independent living cottages, so a couple or a community of neighbors can share the same grounds at different levels of support.

The assisted living building holds 49 apartments in studio and one-bedroom layouts, available as private or semi-private, each with a kitchenette and a full private bathroom. Around-the-clock staff handle the everyday parts of care, from medication management to help with bathing and dressing, and an on-site rounding physician keeps more routine medical attention on campus. Dining runs through a recently remodeled dining room, with three meals a day included, and residents share the campus amenities with the cottage neighbors next door.

Those shared spaces give the community a fuller daily life than its size suggests. There is a beauty salon and barber, a library, a billiard room, a theater room, and a serenity room, along with the landscaped grounds left over from the property's equestrian days, plus gardening, painting lessons, yoga, and daily wellness activities on the calendar. Gardens Care Homestead is operated by Gardens Care Senior Living, and the community is pet-friendly, so a resident's cat or dog can move in.

A senior advisor can walk a family through current pricing, how care levels work, and whether Medicaid can be part of the plan here. The east Lakewood location keeps care and errands close. St. Anthony Hospital, a Level I trauma center, is about ten minutes away, and Intermountain Health Lutheran Hospital is a short drive north in Wheat Ridge. A Walmart Supercenter and other shopping sit nearby on Wadsworth Boulevard, Sloan's Lake is close for time outdoors, and U.S.

6 and Interstate 70 make the campus easy to reach. With hacienda-style architecture, a 4.25-acre campus shared with independent living cottages, and the backing of Gardens Care Senior Living, Homestead at Lakewood gives east-Lakewood families an assisted living option with real character close to Sloan's Lake.
