About Chesapeake Sandstone

A community built around connection, comfort, and independence, Chesapeake Sandstone at 62 Sandstone Rd in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, is one of the most sought-after active senior living communities on the Island. With spacious suites, thoughtful design, and a genuine sense of belonging, this property was built with the belief that seniors deserve more than just a place to live.

Living Options & Care Levels

If you are exploring housing options for a parent or loved one who is active, independent, and looking to simplify their day-to-day life without giving up their privacy or lifestyle, Chesapeake Sandstone is worth a close look. This is an active living community, which means it is designed for seniors who do not require hands-on medical or personal care but who want the peace of mind that comes from living somewhere safe, well-maintained, and socially connected. Your parent would have their own private suite, their own kitchen, and full control over their daily routine, while also having access to a built-in community of neighbours and on-site support. The Chesapeake C.A.R.E. program adds an additional layer of reassurance for families: residents who choose to enroll are checked in on regularly by the on-site superintendent team using systems developed specifically by Chesapeake. For adult children who worry about a parent living alone, this kind of structured check-in program can make a meaningful difference in day-to-day peace of mind.

What You’ll Love About Living Here

Chesapeake Sandstone offers a lifestyle that balances privacy with community. Residents have access to a warm and inviting fireplace lounge where neighbours naturally gather, along with comfortable common areas that host everything from weekly card games to birthday celebrations. For those who enjoy a quiet morning routine, the on-site café area near the building entrance sets a welcoming tone right from the start of the day. When the warmer months arrive, residents can take full advantage of the outdoor terrace and patio spaces, as well as access to a nearby swimming pool, making summer living something to look forward to. Staying connected is easy with Wi-Fi available throughout the building, and day-to-day practicalities are covered with laundry and dry cleaning services on site. Underground parking with personal storage is also available, and for residents who enjoy friendly competition and socializing, regular card games, bingo, and bridge club gatherings are part of the weekly rhythm. Each suite includes a personal kitchenette, giving residents the independence to prepare their own meals and maintain the routines that feel most like home. The suites themselves range from 940 to 1,350 square feet and are designed with accessibility in mind, featuring wide hallways, 36-inch doors, roll-in showers, fold-down seats, and comfort-height toilets, so residents can live comfortably now and as their needs evolve over time.

Why Residents Choose Chesapeake Sandstone
