“A desirable location, architectural appeal and convenient services all add to the comfort of life in Oak Ridges.”

Welcome to the Neighbourhood

Chartwell Oak Ridges Retirement Residence is located in the desirable small town of Oak Ridges, part of Richmond Hill, Ontario. Our community was first built around one of the area’s biggest lakes, Lake Wilcox, and has continued to grow ever since its annexation by the Town of Richmond Hill. Neighbouring cities include King City, Aurora and Whitchurch-Stouffville.

As a part of the Oak Ridges Moraine, much of the geography of Oak Ridges is hilly and leafy, with pine forests, kettle lakes and creeks still prospering thanks to the area being protected from big developments. One natural attraction appreciated by locals is the beach along Lake Wilcox, used for recreational and camp activities during the summertime.

As our retirement community is located off of Yonge Street, you can benefit from a number of convenient services and amenities within a short walk or drive of the residence—from restaurants, cafés and breakfast joints, to grocery stores, banks and pharmacies. Though we’re in the heart of the town, when you visit Chartwell Oak Ridges you’ll find we retain a sense of solitude, as the mature trees that surround our property help us to blend in seamlessly with our affluent residential neighbourhood.
