University House at Wallingford was developed by ERA Care Communities, a recognized leader in retirement living housing and services. In collaboration with the University of Washington Retirement Association, an organization of more than 2000 UW retirees, ERA Care has created an exceptional “urban village” for university retirees and others. The concept of “lifelong learning and growth” has influenced architectural planning as well as recreational and educational program development. Retirement community living offers a refreshing blend of a private apartment home with day-to-day maintenance happily handled by others. If you travel, you can leave knowing that your home is safe. If you entertain, it’s nice to know others will do the work while you enjoy your guests. Visit Website
