The Oaks at Whitaker Glen project breaks ground

Raleigh, NC The Oaks at Whitaker Glen, an active senior living community, is set to begin its $385.5 million, multi-phased expansion project that will combine upscale senior living, public-facing retail stores, and health care on one campus.

As a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), its residents will have access to assisted living, as well as health care services, such as skilled nursing, home health, therapy, and more, as their needs change over time.

Upon completion, the community will feature 246 independent living units, ranging from studio size to three bedrooms, 82 assisted living apartments, and a new, 106-bed, nursing center, all within a sprawling, nearly 20-acre campus.

“This reimagining of The Oaks at Whitaker Glen has been in the works for some time, and we’ve received tremendous support and interest from the community,” said Neil Pruitt, Jr., chairman and CEO of PruittHealth, the company developing The Oaks at Whitaker Glen. “We have a very unique offering that will provide active seniors a chance to experience destination, resort living. We intend to use this campus as a blueprint for similar communities we plan to build in the Southeast.”

This innovative, senior lifestyle community will offer lavish homes and top-tier amenities, with an emphasis on service and quality. Future residents can be as active as they want, with features such as:

• Resort-style pool for laps, water aerobics, and deep-water treading
• Relaxation spa
• Poolside grill and restaurant
• Fitness center with personal training
• Indoor pool
• Bistro for casual dining
• Pickleball, bocce ball
• Putting green and golf simulator
• Walking trail, greenhouse, and gardens

Additionally, residents and members of the public will have access to another restaurant, coffee shop, retail pharmacy, physician services, and outpatient rehabilitative therapy.
