Brighton Assisted Living Community Introduces New Residences & Dining Spaces with Additional Enhancements Planned Through Early Next Year
BRIGHTON, Mass., Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle, a Benchmark Assisted Living and Mind & Memory Care community, has reached an exciting milestone in its ongoing renovation with the opening of 10 new studio, one and two-bedroom residences in a variety of floor plans, along with a new Bar & Bistro for residents and their guests.
The additions are part of a broader project to refresh and enhance the longtime Brighton community, with updated spaces designed around how today's seniors want to live – comfortably, socially and with greater opportunities to connect.
The new apartments are now available, expanding residential options at the community while offering seniors the opportunity to enjoy Chestnut Park's convenient Cleveland Circle location, along with 24/7 personalized support, engaging programs, and a vibrant community life.
The new Bar & Bistro provides another welcoming gathering place where residents can enjoy food, refreshments and live entertainment in a relaxed setting, spend time with friends and family, and connect throughout the day. Designed with both flexibility and social engagement in mind, the space reflects the renovation's overall approach of pairing warm, residential touches with refreshed, contemporary interiors.
"We're thrilled to welcome residents and families into these beautiful new spaces," said Jessica Sacco, executive director of Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle. "The new apartments give more seniors an opportunity to become part of our community, while the bistro creates another inviting place for residents to gather, enjoy one another's company, and build the meaningful relationships that make Chestnut Park feel like home."
The full renovation is expected to be completed by early next year and will bring additional apartments and enhancements throughout the community. Plans include six additional one-bedroom apartments, a new lobby, a Club Room, a study offering residents a quiet retreat, a refreshed dining room with a demonstration kitchen, and a dedicated Art Room. The community's hair salon is also being updated, while the dining and living room spaces within the third-floor Mind & Memory Care neighborhood for those living with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia are being thoughtfully refreshed to create even more welcoming and engaging environments.
Located in the heart of Cleveland Circle, Chestnut Park is within walking distance of the MBTA and Chestnut Hill Reservoir, and offers convenient access to Boston-area shopping, dining, cultural attractions and medical centers. The community has provided Assisted Living and Mind & Memory Care in the Boston area for more than 30 years, with tenured associates – some of whom have been with the community for decades – available around the clock to provide personalized support.
Residents enjoy chef-prepared dining, a robust calendar of programs, and outings and amenities designed to encourage wellness, engagement and connection.
Chestnut Park's renovation builds upon the community's longstanding commitment to creating an environment that supports independence, engagement and meaningful human connection. Refreshed interiors incorporate sophisticated details, inviting colors and warm finishes while creating flexible spaces where residents can participate in programs or simply enjoy time together.
The community is located at 50 Sutherland Road in Brighton. To learn more about Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle or the newly available apartments, click here or call 617.566.1700.
