Bask in Bright, Open-Concept Living in the Basswood Apartment at The Overlook in Charlton, MA

With all the space you need and room to spare, the inviting Basswood apartment home perfectly captures the spirit and charm of our hometown Charlton, Massachusetts. This is our largest one-bedroom floor plan among the many smartly designed layouts offered here at The Overlook. It comes filled with features that make it feel like a contemporary hotel suite you’d find in Boston. Take a look!

Make a grand entrance every day

From the lifelike 3D rendering shown here, you can see that the Basswood apartment home features a layout that you might not expect from a Continuing Care Retirement Community in central Massachusetts.

It’s got an open-concept design that tastefully welcomes you home each and every time you enter. From the moment you walk through the door, you’ll catch the warm, natural light streaming throughout the space from several generously sized windows. As you make your way through the inviting central corridor, the wide hallway opens even further and brings you to the heart of the home: the living and dining area.

Eat, entertain, enjoy

A common feature among contemporary home designs is an open-concept living and dining area, and the Basswood’s layout fits the bill (and all your favorite furniture, too).

This space is where you’ll make memories. From dusk-lit dinners with guests you’ve known for days or decades to playdates and movie nights with the grandkids, the Basswood can handle it all.

This roomy, flexible space also makes entertaining a breeze and keeps everyone connected to the flow of the conversation, whether they’re finishing up dessert at the table or comfortably spread out on the sectional awaiting cocktails and cards. Plus, there’s a powder room easily within reach—which also houses your full-size laundry machines—for everyone’s comfort and convenience.

Not to be overlooked is the complete, customizable kitchen featuring a cut-out that extends open-concept airiness to that space as well. With a full cooking station complemented by elegant stone countertops, you can easily craft favorite family recipes to share with new neighbors at a potluck. And if you’re not going to miss cooking for yourself, no need to worry—just head down to any of our dining venues for restaurant-style, chef-inspired meals every day, which are available for dine-in, takeout or delivery.

We know that when the activity winds down and your new friends have returned to their own independent living residences, you’ll need somewhere to recharge for the next day of adventures. For that, look no further than the Basswood residence at The Overlook.

A massive master suite

One of the reasons that the Basswood apartment home is so popular here at The Overlook—there are currently fewer than five of these residences available—is its huge, bright master suite.

Its two picture windows let in the New England sun each morning, providing an invigorating jump start to the day. The unique shape of the room naturally creates space for your favorite bedroom set (even a king-size bed!) while leaving a luxurious amount of open area that gives it an unmistakably tranquil, airy vibe.

The private full bathroom within the suite contains contemporary fixtures and finishes, with a walk-in shower and an accommodating linen closet for your favorite towels and accessories.

Oh, and have you noticed that huge walk-in closet yet? It stretches more than 10 feet and holds so much that you won’t need to worry about downsizing your wardrobe. Fashion lovers, rejoice!

We’re hosting private, safety-conscious personalized appointments at your convenience and we’d love to provide you a firsthand look. Simply click here or call 508-434-2318 today to get in touch!
