One Wingate East

One Wingate East is an independent living community in Needham, Massachusetts, offered through the Wingate Living Collective as a boutique-style residence designed for those seeking an independent lifestyle.

The community features spacious apartments with one and two-bedroom floor plans, luxurious finishes, and high-end bathrooms with radiant floor heating and walk-in showers. Utilities including heat, air conditioning, electric, water, and trash removal are included. Amenities include an indoor saltwater pool, water fitness classes, and regularly scheduled cultural, social, and recreational programs. Dining is supported by consulting chef services, and the community operates on an entrance fee model that enables below-market monthly rental rates.

One Wingate East functions as part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community model, meaning residents have priority access to assisted living and memory care services at Wingate Residences at Needham should they need future care transitions. The community emphasizes accessibility of wellness services and inviting communal spaces alongside social and recreational programming.

The entrance fee model returns at least 85% of the entrance fee upon departure, with deposits earning interest before the final entrance fee payment. For residents departing within 15 months, the community retains only 1% of the entrance fee per month of residency, with the remainder refunded.
