Wauseon Senior Village is a 48 unit, affordable senior villa community located in the growing north end of rural Wauseon, in Fulton County. The project is a partnership between Preferred Properties, Inc. as the local not-for-profit owner and MV Residential Development LLC.
The 7.0 acre site is located on the east side of Glenwood Avenue in Wauseon and offers many amenities for senior residents. The two bedroom villa style units offer 947 square feet of living area with 1.5 baths, and attached garage. Other amenities include ample storage, covered front porch, rear patio, walk-in closets, fully equipped kitchens, security systems, and universal designs. Also to note, over 10% of the units are fully accessible. A community clubhouse with on-site management office is located in the site’s central park area that contains a fishing pond, nature walk, picnic shelter, badminton court and other amenities.
The development includes a host of supportive services and other amenities that make it attractive to seniors. Wauseon Senior Village was developed at a cost of over $8 million with equity from Housing Tax Credits, Housing Development Assistance Program funds from the Ohio Housing Finance Agency, and Rural Development Program funding. Preferred Properties coordinates supportive services through the Area Office on Aging of Northwest Ohio.
