Bauer House
There’s one care type at Bauer House in Quincy, MA, and it’s independent living. The community is located in South Quincy and accepts residents aged 62 and older.
Independent living at Bauer House is a private home with shared community services around it. Daily care isn’t something it covers, and it suits an independent senior of 62 or older who wants common space.
Its 75 beds are spread across one-bedroom and handicap accessible one-bedroom homes. A one-bedroom gives a resident a separate bedroom, and the accessible version serves someone who needs an accessible space. Wheelchair accessibility helps residents who use mobility devices get around the building.
Shared space includes a community kitchen, and there are computers with internet access for residents. Pets are allowed here too.
At 84, Walk Score counts the area as very walkable, with most errands reachable on foot. Someone who’s quit driving keeps the freedom to go out independently.
