Vergennes Grand Senior Living is a newly constructed senior living facility located in Vergennes, Vermont. The building on North Street is being repurposed and renovated to accommodate up to 84 residents of all income levels. The project includes a tastefully designed expansion, as well as a restoration of the original 1820 historic building to its Italianate splendor. The community is designed to cater to seniors who may need independent or assisted living services, as well as those requiring memory care support.
Upon completion in January 2025, Vergennes Grand will offer a range of accommodations, including studio, 1 bedroom, and 2 bedroom apartments for independent or assisted living residents. The memory care suite will provide private and semi-private rooms for residents in need of specialized care. Residents will have access to a variety of amenities within the community, including a main dining room and living room with views of the Adirondacks, a café/market with all-day dining options, a hair salon, and a multi-purpose activity room, among others.
The construction of Vergennes Grand is supported by various state and federal programs aimed at providing dignified housing and care for seniors, particularly those in the "forgotten middle" population. The community has received community support as well as funding from grants and investors to bring this much-needed senior living option to Vergennes. The development is seen as a positive addition to the area, offering a vibrant and welcoming space for seniors to call home.
