taking in seniors. Two seniors have moved in, although no youth have joined so far.
The strata-titled units can take in a total of 33 individuals, with a mix of single and twin en suite rooms.
Director and co-founder Belinda Wee said: "The idea of inter-generational co-living makes a lot of sense, both from the psychosocial and ethical aspects of care, but I think the practical aspect is harder to surmount."
She added: "Young tenants may have moved out from their usual living environments to avoid nagging parents, so they will hesitate to move into another similar environment. However, young people are also idealistic, and may want to do good when convinced of the benefits of inter-generational co-living."
For older residents who need care services, monthly rental can go up to $5,000. Current fees for younger tenants range from $2,500 to $3,500 for single or twin rooms.
