Overview of Elancé at Old Town Alexandria

Elancé at Old Town Alexandria offers assisted living and memory care in Alexandria, VA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing and medication while a resident maintains an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having both care levels in one community can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, allowing them to remain in the same community as those needs change.

Located in the Alexandria Historical District, the community offers studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom residences. A studio or one-bedroom layout provides a single private living space, while a two-bedroom layout can suit two people moving together. Pets are allowed, so residents can keep a pet with them. The area has a Walk Score of 97, described as a walker’s paradise, meaning daily errands do not require a car. A resident who no longer drives can still get out independently on foot.
