Blue Mountain Terrace

Winters, CA

Project Overview

Blue Mountain Terrace is an affordable senior development which will be new construction of a three-story residential building and a community center on approximately 2.8 acres of undeveloped land at 147 East Baker Street in downtown Winters, CA.  The property will be located in a mixed-use development with a clinic, credit union, senior center, and market.

Winters Senior Housing will include 63 units in a 53,000 SF residential building, a 6,000 SF community center with a commercial kitchen, a community garden, 43 on-site parking spaces, management office, and on-site social services. Residences will include two studio, 56 one-bedroom, and four two-bedroom apartments for seniors and one three-bedroom manager’s unit. Typical unit sizes will be 597 SF studios, 657 SF one-bedroom apartments, and 874 SF three-bedroom apartments.

Each unit will contain a full kitchen, full bathroom, living/dining area, centralized high-efficient heating and cooling air systems, and energy efficient appliances. Interior walls will consist of painted drywall, and interior ceilings include a spray-applied acoustical finish. Flooring will include carpet and vinyl flooring.   All units will have a private patio or balcony. All units have been designed to be fully accessible or adaptable, thereby allowing for aging in place.

The Craftsman‐style building will be Type V wood‐framed construction with stucco exteriors and fiber cement board siding, a pitched roofline with composite asphalt shingles. Architectural elements include articulation of the façade and large framed windows and balconies. Exterior details include varying fenestration accented with extensive trim and a multi‐color painting scheme.
