This is the kind of place where people will discover how great senior living can be. The expertise behind this project will help create a community where people make friends, form bonds and enjoy life in a group of senior peers. Those who have lived alone will find that they make great friends with others and learn to enjoy life anew.
You really will find it nice to have people your same age just outside the door, people who want to be with you. You’ll also discover that your interests expand. Consider the possibility that some of your best days might still be ahead of you. We have seen many people’s lives improve immensely in places like Carp Commons.
Carp Commons allows people to retire in this lovely, heavily-rural area, west of the hustle and bustle of Ottawa proper. It’s also a growing area, of course, and this community is one of many developments happening. This will be an ideal destination for people from throughout Eastern Ontario who want to be close to family in Kanata and the west end of Ottawa. We think it will also appeal to people from throughout Ottawa Region who want a respite from the traffic and noise of the city.
This mid-rise promises to deliver on Verve Senior Living's philosophy of making every day great. Seniors who are still independent but no longer want to live alone will find their enthusiasm for life rekindled here. It’s a perfect solution for people who have had enough of cooking solo meals and want to make their own decisions about where and how they live.
Independent seniors will find a home on the top floors’ private residential units, where you can choose to come downstairs to participate in activities (of which there will be many, we assure you). You'll also be able to relax in the spa, take a meal in the dining room or see what’s happening in the games room. We’ve seen before that this is the kind of residence that encourages seniors to make a whole new group of friends.

"Melanie is a true gem! She showed how much she cared from the beginning by being so accessible and willing to offer information and guidance. She and Collins made a difficult process simple and my parents and I appreciate them so much.

"I've been blown away with the whole experience of getting my dad moved and settled at Carp Commons. Every single person I've spoken with has been friendly, helpful and kind. The marketing and sales team was so helpful through the entire experience to make it as smooth and supportive as possible. They made my dad feel comfortable with the process and set him up so nicely. It is reassuring to know he is at such a lovely home and community.
