RESIDENT TESTIMONIAL
There's no place I'd rather be than Edgemere"
Hear from Helen Ellis, a resident at Edgemere, about why life at Edgemere feels like home and why downsizing was the right decision.
A location that can’t be beat.
Located in an enclave just north of University Park, Edgemere gives you easy convenience to attractions, dining, and entertainment nearby and downtown. And being just off the Northwest Highway between the Dallas North Tollway and U.S. Highway 75, the entire Dallas/Fort Worth area is within easy reach. Edgemere is also close to world-class medical centers, grocery stores, and pharmacies — and with scheduled transportation, running errands and getting to doctor’s appointments is a breeze.
