Construction nears completion for Churchill project
The Villages will join Churchill in September
We recently told you about Churchill Estates and the new development's effort to help provide programming options for Lake Highlands seniors.

As the Lake Highlands North Rec Center prepares to close later this month for renovations, Churchill is stepping in to help bridge the gap for the next few months.

If you missed it, you can read that article here.

Churchill is a new senior living facility, located at Northwest Highway and Lullwater, just west of Plano Road.

Word on the street is the L Street residents who share that neck of the LH woods with Churchill are thrilled with their new neighbor.

Turns out there's more development news for Churchill on the horizon.

According to Tiffany Johnson, who handles PR for the Villages of Lake Highlands, construction of the new facility is nearing completion, which will bring a new full-service continuing care facility to our neighborhood.

So just what is a continuing care facility, you might ask?

We were wondering, too.

"A continuing care retirement community (CCRC) is a senior living community where residents can choose from multiple housing and service options based on their individual wants and needs," says Johnson.

"The Villages of Lake Highlands will offer assisted living, Alzheimer’s care, rehabilitation, and health care services in a resort-like setting."

"Located immediately adjacent to Churchill Estates, the Villages of Lake Highlands and Churchill Estates together will constitute a full-service CCRC."

For seniors and their family members that means all these services make it easier residents to stay close to their spouses, friends and family even as their needs may change.

"We're pleased to be located next to Churchill Estates," adds Chip Browlee, executive director of Villages of Lake Highlands.

"Churchill Estates is the new gold standard for this area’s active senior living communities."

"We're confident that Villages of Lake Highlands will successfully complement Churchill Estates by offering additional levels of care, service and housing options on a convenient resort-style senior living campus."

Construction is nearing completion, and a grand opening is scheduled for September.

Stay tuned for more details.

In the meantime, if you have questions about the new CCRC, give them a call at 214.687.8239 or visit them online here.
