Kruse Village to add new, larger cottages
Sept. 21 , 2006

BRENHAM, Texas - Kruse Village will soon begin construction on 12 newly designed cottages on five acres located on its campus at 1700 E. Stone in Brenham. Groundbreaking for The Greens of Kruse Village is set for 2 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 26.

At 1,400-plus square feet, the new cottages (duplexes) - called The Texas - will be the largest offered at Kruse Village. Each two-bath, two-bedroom cottage will include a two-car garage and screened-in porch.

The beautifully landscaped grounds will include a putting green and gazebo. Plans also call for a walking trail.

"Eventually, we will have 27 of the new cottages," said John Berkely, vice president for senior services for Lutheran Social Services, owner of Kruse Village. "With the large number of baby boomers retiring in the next few years, the demand for independent living will be increasing.

"Kruse Village is the perfect place because it is one of the few full-service senior communities in the area," Berkely said. "We offer independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing care and dementia care."
