Wayland's Paine Estate Renovation Adds New Senior Living Units

LCB Senior Living began renovating the longtime senior living center in 2022.

WAYLAND, MA — A top-to-bottom renovation of Wayland's Paine Estate recently wrapped up, offering 76 new senior living units. The renovation began two years ago when LCB Senior Living purchased the estate from Traditions of Wayland.

The estate sits on near 900 acres along the Sudbury River off of Route 27. Frank and Virginia Paine built their namesake estate there in the 1920s. But over the last 100 years, the property has been transformed to include condominiums, a hospice center and senior living in the main estate building, plus conservation land. The property also includes the Noyes-Parris House, the oldest standing house in Wayland built in 1690.

Here's more about the renovation and reopening from LCB Senior Living:
