About Modena Cherry Creek
Modena Cherry Creek is a luxury senior living community at 2440 South Wabash Street in the Four Square Mile area of southeast Denver, offering independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Opened in 2021 and operated by Solera Senior Living, it is a newer, boutique-scale building that sits directly on the Cherry Creek Trail, with Rocky Mountain views from its upper floors. The community is built around a next-generation idea of senior living, more boutique hotel than institution.
Apartments come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts with full kitchens, stainless appliances, and quartz counters. A resident can settle into independent or assisted living and move to the dedicated memory care neighborhood if dementia care becomes necessary, all in one building. Dining and gathering spaces carry real character: an exhibition kitchen puts the executive chef in view for restaurant-style meals, and the building is dotted with named rooms: the Creekside Lounge with live music, the Mountainside Lounge for games, Studio 5280 for meditation, the Mary Jane Studio for art, and the Summit Room for guest lectures.
A yoga and wellness center opens to an outdoor terrace, and a rooftop terrace centers on a fireplace. Care runs deeper than the finishes suggest: licensed nursing is on site around the clock, with certified aides and medication aides, wearable emergency alert devices, medication management, and diabetic and incontinence care. More than forty life-enrichment programs fill the calendar, including cooking classes, pet therapy, and walking tours along the Cherry Creek Trail.
Modena Cherry Creek fits families who want a new, design-forward building with the reassurance of memory care in the same place. It is private pay, so Medicaid is not accepted, and the community is pet-friendly. The southeast Denver location keeps essentials close, and the community fronts the Cherry Creek Trail for walking and biking, the Gardens on Havana shopping center is a short drive, and Interstate 25 and Interstate 225 are nearby along the Hampden corridor.
The Medical Center of Aurora is roughly three miles away for hospital care, with AdventHealth Porter also within reach. Under Solera Senior Living, Modena Cherry Creek combines a 2021 luxury build, a chef-driven dining program, and a rare trailside setting with a full care continuum through memory care.
