WHERE IS LEGACY VILLAGE OF BENTONVILLE ARKANSAS
Q What and Where is Legacy Village?
A Legacy Village is a premier Senior Retirement Community taking shape in Bentonville, Arkansas. Our vision is a senior campus that will include: Garden Homes, a Senior Cooperative, a Community Center, Assisted Living and Nursing capabilities, and a state of the art Alzheimer’s Care Facility. Phase One includes thirty-three single family Garden Homes offering six different floor plans. The second phase will include six Green Houses for assisted living. Phase three will include both rental and cooperative apartments. There will be no "institutional model" nursing home. Legacy Village will be more than just a place for seniors to live. The Garden Homes are designed in a traditional neighborhood setting with streets bordered by lovely landscaped sidewalks; two fountain parks, one with a gazebo; walking trails; and the Legacy Clubhouse.
Q Where is Legacy Village?
A This terrific location is a beautiful area you will love coming home. North of Memorial Park, Legacy Village is situated on the west end of forty-eight acres of lovely green terrain. You’ll find home at the corner of Northeast "J" Street and John DeShields Boulevard in Bentonville. This is just one mile east of downtown, and can be accessed from I-540 via Exit 88. It is the kind of place family and friends will enjoy visiting. It is directly across the street from the entrance to the new Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art being developed by Alice Walton and the Walton Family Foundation. You will certainly never want to miss this, opening in 2009. It will be the largest collection of art by American artists in the world!

Q Who owns Legacy Village?
A Northwest Arkansas Senior Services Inc. (NWASSI) owns the property. NWASSI is a non-profit organization made up of Rogers and Bentonville residents interested in addressing the housing and health care needs of seniors in their communities. The Board of Directors is an active group of volunteers who reside in the Bentonville area.
Q What is a Garden Home?
A The Garden Homes of Legacy Village are private residences that range from 1,416 to 2,912 square feet. Each structure includes a two-car garage. Initial residents will receive individual consultation with Kenyon Morgan, our architect, to personalize their own custom finish package.
Q What are the Garden Home Design Features?
A Nine foot ceilings are found throughout the interior. The living, dining and master bedroom all have crown molding. Ceiling fans cool the living, dining and front porch areas.
Granite tiles make-up the kitchen counter tops and bar area. Appliances include a side-by-side refrigerator, built-in gas range, built-in wall oven and microwave at easy-to-reach height, and dishwasher. Cooks will appreciate the large walk-in pantry.
The master bedroom suite includes a spacious bedroom sitting area. The master bath boasts an 8-foot cultured marble vanity counter with large mirror, two sinks, separate tub and large tiled shower (The Ames offers a single combination unit), and linen closet. There is a large walk-in closet with built-in drawers, partial double-rod for hanging high and low, window for natural light, and built-in low shelves for shoes and bins for clothes storage.
Q How large is the Garden Home garage?
A Over sized! You’ll have plenty of room with an 18-foot wide double-car garage door with an automatic opener. From inside the garage you will access your HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioner unit). Both the garage and door are insulated for temperate space. You enter your home through the utility room that includes great cabinet and countertop space. Some plans also include a utility sink. And you enter your garage from an alley into the back of your home, not from the front!
Q How would you describe the Legacy Clubhouse?
A When you walk in the front door of this state-of-the-art 4,000 square foot, multi-purpose Clubhouse you will see a large Gathering Hall with a fireplace, a Serving Kitchen, a Den with a fireplace, a private Gathering Room, a Fitness Center, Internet Stations, and a large Courtyard Patio with an outdoor fireplace.
This is your retreat, offering you the setting and opportunity to pursue lifelong interests. Begin your sunrise with a walk along the avenues and park settings. Join your neighbors for a cup of coffee and conversation. Errands? Speak with service staff about assistance and optional services. Send a fax or go online at an Internet Station.
In the afternoon, meet here with your bridge club. Stretch your imagination with arts and crafts activities or participate in a scheduled "how-to" workshop, class, or demonstration by a guest artist or craftsman. No need to worry about flat laundry or housekeeping. Legacy Village will take care of those chores weekly. Staff will be happy to help with scheduling a meeting, party, reunion, or perhaps a special request. The Fitness Center offers an assortment of equipment designed for a relaxing healthful workout program.
Evening brings a variety of opportunities to enjoy games, meetings, theater, live entertainment, or even popcorn and movie night on the large flat screen TV. Community dinners are always a pleasure when you use the outdoor grilling kitchen on the patio. Retirement at Legacy Village will enhance your dynamic lifestyle.
Q What is a senior?
A Persons aged sixty-two or older. At least one household member must be at least sixty-two.
Q What about my pet?

The residents will pay an entry fee, that is either partially or 100% refundable, based on the plan they choose.
