Brightmore of South Charlotte — Ballantyne, NC
Site work is set to begin on a new continuing care retirement community in Ballantyne, N.C., according to developer Liberty Healthcare. It will be called Brightmore at South Charlotte and offer 138 independent living units, 30 assisted living units and 120 skilled nursing beds. It is located on 17.5 acres and is estimated to cost between $35 million and $40 million.
Liberty will first build the 69,000-square-foot skilled nursing and rehab facility, called the Pavilion Health Center at Brightmore, and residents can move in by late 2013. The independent living facility, about 230,000 square feet, will open for residents in early 2014.
The independent living area will be three stories in some areas and four stories in others, while the skilled nursing facility will be one story.
Rather than the traditional CCRC equity model, where seniors buy a stake in the community and pay upfront for their homes, Brightmore will be a rental model, where residents sign annual leases and pay by the month. The decision to offer rentals was influenced, in part, by the recent economic crisis and deflated housing market.
The community will also feature dining options, including a pub, bistro, general dining and formal dining. There will also be a market-type shop where residents can buy sandwiches and gourmet items. For more information call 855-833-8511 or visit: http://brightmoreofsouthcharlotte.com/
