Project: Varenna at Fountaingrove Senior Living Community

Client: Áegis Living

The Varenna at Fountaingrove Senior Living Community is currently being constructed on 29 acres of lush Sonoma County hills, overlooking Fountaingrove Lake and the Santa Rosa Plain. As an all-inclusive senior living community owned and operated by Áegis Living, residents will have access to a variety of housing, recreational opportunities, and health care.

Plans for Varenna include 108 units in the “Villetta”, which will also house a private theater, fitness room, and business center; 32 townhouse units in two smaller buildings; 29 individual and duplex “Casita” dwellings; a 61-bed health care facility; and 20 onsite employee housing units, totaling 475,000 square feet of extensively landscaped development.

Brelje & Race’s role in this development project includes: land planning; tentative map preparation; EIR support services; rough and final grading plans; plans for onsite public and private sewer, water, fire protection, storm drainage, erosion control, and layout; and construction staking.

Construction has been underway for nearly a year, with an anticipated completion in the early months of 2008. This is currently the largest construction project in Sonoma County, with an estimated build out budget of $162 million.
