Future Residents
Hesperus Village is home to nearly 100 senior residents living across its two wings, Hesperus East and Hesperus West. Each side of our facility offers uniquely designed units with a variety of floor plans, ranging from cozy studios to comfortable 2-bedroom suites. Throughout the facility, there are communal spaces which can be used by all residents regardless of which building you live in. Hesperus Village’s communal spaces, include a dining room, seminar room, exercise room, library, and lounge, all set amidst our peaceful grounds with access to natural surroundings and a community garden. Residents are invited to participate in Hesperus Village’s active community life by taking part in any of the resident-led circles. Residents are also invited to take initiative and explore ways to share their gifts - or discover new ones! Most importantly, residents are encouraged to find ways to cultivate meaningful relationships and continue to engage in their own personal journeys during this important stage of life.
