Independent living communities like the brand-new, contemporary MorningStar of Kirkland offers a beautiful, no-maintain home, variety of onsite amenities, and broad community of friends.

Today’s seniors are not only living longer but are more engaged and active than their parents and grandparents were in their later years.

Time is precious and life needs to be lived to the fullest.

MorningStar of Kirkland’s five-star dining service puts meal preparation and clean-up in our hands and frees you up for a before dinner swim in the pool or a leisurely stroll through our Zen garden. Like a drink after dinner? Walk over to our full bar, chat with friends and enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail.

A complement of wellness programs keep your brain sharp, the body fit, and spiritually and socially connected.

Another overlooked advantage to independent living is the security of knowing someone is always around.
