For two decades, it has been a goal of the University of Washington
Retirement Association to create a congenial, cultivated residential
environment where UW retirees and others could live and enjoy stimulating
pursuits and activities. Welcome to University House, Wallingford, developed in collaboration with the UWRA.
There are many satisfactions to a university career. Important
achievements. Contributions to society. The world of ideas. Exchange
with lively, stimulating people. Travel. Understandably, those
retired from university work often stay quite connected to the
campus and to former colleagues.
The University House, Wallingford, an extraordinary residential
community, further supports a vibrant, involved way of life.
The concept of "lifelong learning and growth" has influenced
architectural planning as well as recreational and educational
program development. Numerous studies on healthy aging show that
individuals who continue to build new masteries and explore new
experiences report a fuller enjoyment of life and, quite often,
an enhanced level of physical and emotional well being.
Retirement community living offers a refreshing blend of a private
apartment home with day-to-day maintenance happily handled by others.
If you travel, you can leave knowing that your home is safe. If
you entertain, it's nice to know others will do the work while
you enjoy your guests.
University House apartments include full kitchens, wall-to-wall
carpeting, window coverings, cable television, with fireplaces,
washers and dryers in some units. Many University House apartments
have courtyard garden or city skyline views, a magnificent vista
day or night.
We also offer an elegant dining room with superb cuisine, beauty
salon, art gallery, utility and maintenance services,
month-to-month rentals, housekeeping and linen service, 24-hour staff
and resident call system, scheduled group transportation to UW and events,
computer center, fitness center, multimedia auditorium, resident
conservatory and garden areas, Health & Wellness Center, putting green,
wood shop, and an arts and crafts studio.

Benefits of Our Assisted Living Program
If you have known older friends or family members who experienced
a serious decline in health or function, then you probably know
how important having a plan—ahead of actual need—can be.
Assisted living at University House enables an individual to obtain
additional assistance in daily tasks such as bathing, dressing,
or medication supervision, while at the same time promoting privacy,
dignity, and respect for individuality.
