Dirigo Pines is a 56-acre site offering two major senior living options—apartments within the Main Inn and an array of cottages. Both the Main Inn and the cottages are uniquely incorporated under the Eastern Maine Medical Healthcare umbrella to provide residents with the pre-eminent healthcare access in both assisted and independent living environments.
Within the 133,500 SF Main Inn, Gawron Turgeon Architects, P.C. designed 42 independent living apartments, 32 traditional assisted living apartments, 27 special care (memory loss) units and 13 advanced care assisted living units. The cottage homes were designed as single-story duplex structures, sensitively located within the densely forested site and adjacent to naturalized “man-made” ponds. The cottages are 1,200 – 1,480 SF homes with garages and well landscaped lots.
