The Tern Residence: Keeping You Connected to the Action at One of Central Florida’s Top Active Senior Living Communities

March 11, 2020

If you’re looking for an active senior living community, Lakeside at Waterman Village has much to offer. Beyond the incredible amenities found at Waterman Village, and all there is to do in Mount Dora, Lakeside at Waterman Village is adding more amenities – the Lakeside Grand includes an outdoor pool, hot tub and fireplace, a gym and group wellness spaces, a bar, café and dining room, plus a game room, a multipurpose room, library and even a guest suite. If you’re someone who loves being close to everything, a residence in the Lakeside Grand could be a great fit.

One option in the Lakeside Grand is the Tern residence. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home, which offers more than 1,000 square feet of space, is designed to make hosting guests a breeze.

When you enter the Tern, the foyer leads to the common areas. An open concept great room flows into the kitchen, separated by a generous island that doubles as a breakfast bar. The open floor plan allows you to create a furniture arrangement that best suits your lifestyle. You can create multiple smaller areas within the space, or you can have it all open and connected together. Perhaps you’ll put a table between the kitchen and guest room, creating a breakfast nook. Then, you could place your bookshelves and favorite reading chair in a corner overlooking the balcony, and group the couches to create a conversational setting. Or, if you’re a movie buff, perhaps you want to create a theater-like experience with a focus on the TV.  Whatever you have in mind, the flexible, open great room allows for it.

To one side of the great room, you’ll find the master suite. Complete with ample room for a king-sized bed and your favorite bedroom furniture, this space also offers a full bathroom with double vanities and a walk-in closet.

What’s particularly nice about the Tern is that the second bedroom – whether you use it as a guest room, library, office, craft room or anything else – is located on the other side of the common spaces from the master.

With an entrance off the kitchen area, the second bedroom offers a level of privacy you won’t get with rooms next to each other. Similarly, if you and your partner have different schedules – a night out and an early bird, perhaps – the second bedroom could be turned into a den to dampen any sounds while your partner sleeps.

The screened-in balcony or porch off the great room is another wonderful aspect of the Tern. You’ll be able to relax outside without the annoyance of insects. And, as the Florida sun starts to warm the patio too much, you can retreat back inside your perfectly cool home.

As with all of the residences at Lakeside at Waterman Village, the largest perk to calling the Tern home is all of the services and amenities that come with this lifestyle. When you become a resident at Lakeside at Waterman Village, you’ll have access not only to the amenities found there, but also to all of the amenities available at Waterman Village – one of central Florida’s top active senior living communities.
