Everleigh Cape Cod opened in August, marking Cape Cod’s first 55+ active independent living community. The community in Hyannis, Mass., features 225 apartment homes, with a compelling mix of one- and two-bedroom units, including 23 affordable residences.
Architectural firm The Architectural Team, Inc. (TAT) used a thoughtful design approach that includes a bright and open living environment in a New England vernacular style. Inventive touches such as a roofline pitched to conceal mechanical equipment with dormers appearing as an occupiable attic help the four-story building fit into its surrounding neighborhood while also meeting Federal Aviation Administration requirements necessitated by its location near an airport.
With more than 17,000 square feet of recreational space, Everleigh Cape Cod features an array of outdoor amenities such as a pool, dog park, meditation garden, and pickle ball and bocce courts arrayed across three large, south-facing courtyards. Other key amenity areas include a theater, chef’s kitchen, yoga/fitness center, business center, library, and art gallery and studio space.
Each residential unit features large windows for abundant natural light, as well as upscale finishes including wide-plank flooring, kitchens with islands, quartz countertops, glass-tiled backsplashes and under-cabinet lighting. Several two-bedroom units also offer extended layouts with den areas.
