Themed around the sunlit piazzas, vibrant tiles, and hospitality of the Amalfi Coast, the community welcomes residents and guests with landscaped gardens, an outdoor grotto centered around a mosaic fountain, and intricate entrance water features inspired by hand-painted terracotta. Warm earth-tone stucco mixes with splashy Mediterranean hues, blending true Italian atmosphere with stunning water and mountain views. Inside, every detail is designed for both comfort and conversation, whether it’s enjoying a refreshing gelato, sharing stories on the lakeshore terrace, or gathering in the cozy pub for shuffleboard and prosecco toasts with friends. ## Lifestyle, dining & wellness ### Lifestyle More than 200 monthly programs reflect both coastal Italian sensibility and local flair: art classes, culinary workshops (including pasta- and pizza-making), TED-style talks, music therapy concerts, language lessons, lakeside walks, and excursions to Kirkland’s galleries, farmers markets, and beaches. The creative Life Enrichment team partners with residents to infuse every calendar with both tradition and discovery. ### Dining Dining here celebrates the spirit of la famiglia and la dolce vita: wood-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, regional antipasti, and Northwest seafood, all guided by resident preferences and registered dietitians. Residents gather indoors and out, enjoying flexible all-day dining, private family parties, special dessert hours, and lively “taste of Italy” nights in a social, scenic setting. ### Wellness At Áegis Living, wellness is a whole-person approach—nurturing mind, body, and spirit.

Our Kirkland Waterfront community offers a full range of care options, including Light Assisted Living, Assisted Living, Transitional Care, Memory Care, Respite Care, and Hospice Care. This means residents can begin with the support they need today and transition to additional care over time without leaving the community they call home. ### Is Memory Care available, and how is it different from Assisted Living here? Yes, dedicated Memory Care is offered at Kirkland Waterfront for residents living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. While Assisted Living supports residents who need help with daily tasks like medications or bathing, Memory Care provides a secure environment with specially trained staff and programming designed to engage residents cognitively, socially, and emotionally. ### How does pricing work at Áegis Living Kirkland Waterfront? Pricing typically includes a monthly rate for your apartment and core services like dining, housekeeping, and life enrichment programming, with care services billed based on each resident's individual needs. Because care needs vary, we recommend scheduling a visit so our team can walk you through a personalized cost estimate based on the apartment and level of care you're considering. ### What apartment options are available? Residents can choose from a variety of floor plans, including several Studio layouts (Plans 2 and 3), multiple One Bedroom options, Two Bedroom apartments, and Companion suites for those who prefer to share. With Lake Washington and mountain views as a backdrop, each apartment is thoughtfully designed for comfort within our larger, luxury building. ### What is dining like at the community? Dining celebrates la dolce vita with wood-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, regional antipasti, and fresh Northwest seafood, guided by residents' preferences and our registered dietitians. With flexible all-day dining, special dessert hours, family parties, and lively "taste of Italy" nights, mealtimes feel like a warm Italian gathering of la famiglia. ### What kinds of activities and wellness programs do residents enjoy? Residents have access to more than 200 monthly programs, including art classes, pasta- and pizza-making workshops, TED-style talks, music therapy concerts, language lessons, and lakeside walks. We also organize excursions throughout downtown Kirkland to galleries, farmers markets, and beaches, with our Life Enrichment team co-creating the calendar alongside residents. ### Are pets allowed at Áegis Living Kirkland Waterfront? Yes, pets are welcome at our community because we know they are cherished members of the family. Our team is happy to discuss specifics about your pet during the move-in conversation to make sure everyone — two-legged and four-legged — settles in comfortably. ### How is safety and staffing handled? The community offers 24/7 care with onsite nurses daily, so support is available around the clock. We also have an onsite PT center to support recovery and mobility, and the building's thoughtful design promotes both safety and ease of movement for residents at every level of care. ### Do you offer short-term or trial stays? Yes, Respite Care is available at Kirkland Waterfront, which makes it a great option for short-term stays — whether you're recovering from a hospitalization, giving a family caregiver a break, or simply experiencing the community before committing long-term. Respite residents enjoy the same dining, activities, and care services as our long-term residents. ### Where is the community located, and what's it like to visit? Áegis Living Kirkland Waterfront sits right on Lake Washington in the heart of downtown Kirkland, with landscaped gardens, a mosaic fountain grotto, and stunning water and mountain views. Visitors love gathering with residents on the lakeshore terrace, in the cozy pub for shuffleboard and prosecco, or over gelato — we encourage families to come spend time and join in community life. ## What residents and families say > My mother is always busy with fun activities, the food is fantastic, and most of all, people treat her like family. > — Mark B., Son > The staff’s warmth, the beautiful Italian gardens, and the lakeshore walks have made my mom blossom.
