As you step out of Chartwell New Edinburgh Square Retirement Residence and stroll down Beechwood Avenue on a sunny morning, pedestrians walking their dogs or pushing baby carriages and shop owners beginning to open their doors, you may wonder how to spend your day. Should you pop into the bookstore to pick up the latest best seller? Grab a scone at the bakery? Stop by the farmer’s market to pick up some fresh produce to complement the dinner you want to prepare tonight? Or perhaps a stroll along the Rideau River is in order, considering it’s only a block away?

When you choose to call Chartwell New Edinburgh Square home, you’ll find the lifestyle in our urban retirement community blends seamlessly with our vibrant locale.
