Our story is really yours.

In Winchester, Va., a retirement living pioneer builds a community on two pillars: choice and control.

The Village at Orchard Ridge is designed for people who demand more from retirement living: more choices for comfortable living, more control over their finances, more and better options for the way they receive health care. That’s the guiding principle of our community, brought to life by one of the region’s most trusted names in not-for-profit senior living: National Lutheran Communities & Services, with more than a century of experience, serving all faiths. The vision: to go beyond conventional approaches to “continuing care.” In Winchester, Va., so rich in tradition, you’ll find not only consummate design in apartments and cottages, and every convenience and pleasure within walking distance; you’ll see a transformational approach to health care, bringing a whole new array of services right to your Village home, including assisted living and even nursing care.

Perhaps most important, The Village at Orchard Ridge is designed around the ideas and aspirations of you, the residents. You will help shape its activities, its culture, its daily policies and its future. Here, your voice will have greater resonance in community affairs. Today, as we pour new foundations, you can help define your way of life from the very beginning of this community. Learn the important role you have to play as a member of The Orchard Club.
