As you explore senior living options in Seattle, you’ve likely encountered many communities that look similar on the surface: beautiful amenities, comfortable apartments, and promises of an active lifestyle. But at Horizon House, we believe it’s just as important to understand what makes us different as it is to know what we offer.
What Horizon House IS
We are a Life Plan Community
Horizon House is a Life Plan Community designed to support residents through various stages of aging. We offer a strong continuum of care that includes independent living, assisted living, memory support, and respite services—all within one connected campus. This allows our residents to remain in familiar surroundings, with access to additional care when needed.
Our upcoming West Tower expansion reinforces our commitment to long-term living, adding 202 beautifully crafted independent living apartments and ensuring continued access to services that support aging in place.
We are a Mission-Driven, Nonprofit Organization
As a nonprofit, our focus is on people—not profit margins. Every decision we make is guided by our mission to enhance residents’ lives. We underscore that commitment in everything we do from our reinvestment in community programs and staff development to the transparency in our operations.
We Are a Community With an Inclusive, Resident-Driven Culture
With more than 60 resident-led committees and interest groups, Horizon House truly belongs to its residents. Whether you’re passionate about civic affairs, arts and culture, or social justice, you’ll find a community of like-minded neighbors. We’re deeply engaged in Seattle’s cultural scene and proud to have a progressive voice in local conversations.
We Are a Community That Values its Team
Quality care begins with a dedicated, well-supported team. We believe in fair compensation and ongoing professional development, creating an environment where staff can thrive, which in turn benefits the residents they serve.
What Horizon House ISN’T
We are Not a For-Profit Enterprise
We’re not beholden to shareholders or investor expectations. Our decisions are made with residents’ well-being in mind—not to meet a bottom line.
We are Not a Community That Limits Your Choices
From cozy studios and one-bedrooms to penthouse apartments, Horizon House offers a wide range of floor plans and lifestyle options. We embrace individuality, with resident-driven programming, flexible dining, and personal touches that make our community feel like home.
We are Not a Place That Just Meets the Basics
Living here isn’t about maintaining the status quo—it’s about enriching your life. Our residents often discover new passions, forge lasting friendships, and enjoy meaningful experiences that go far beyond the basics.
We are Not a Community That Cuts Corners on Staffing
You won’t find a revolving door of short-staffed shifts here. Horizon House is proud to offer competitive benefits and maintain a team that’s properly supported and resourced. It’s one of the many ways we ensure our community remains a place of excellence and compassion.
We are Not Just an Assisted Living Community
While we offer exceptional assisted living services, Horizon House is so much more. We are a Life Plan Community with a vibrant foundation of independent living, memory support, and respite care—all designed to support aging in place. Our residents don’t come here because they have to—they come because they want to live fully, surrounded by opportunities for engagement, personal growth, and connection. Horizon House isn’t a care facility; it’s a thriving, mission-driven community where support is available when you need it, without defining your daily life.
