About Us

Our Mission

At Edinburgh Square, we care about the happiness and well-being of every resident. We provide a comfortable, independent living community for seniors (those 62-years-old or greater), or those applying for an apartment specifically constructed to be accessible to individuals with physical disabilities. Unlike an assisted living or nursing home, Edinburgh Square does not provide resident care. Our community is designed to give individuals access to affordable, quality apartments with a variety of services, amenities, and active lifestyle opportunities available. Our safe, maintenance-free building is nestled in the scenic Roanoke Valley, conveniently located just minutes from shopping, restaurants, doctors’ offices, and hospitals. Edinburgh Square is operated by CSM Senior Living Management, with missional oversight provided by a local, not-for-profit Board of Directors. Edinburgh Square does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, elderliness, familial status, disability, source of funds, sexual orientation, gender identity, and veteran status in the admission or access to, and/or treatment and employment in, its federally assisted programs and activities. Occupancy is open to all persons who meet the community’s eligibility criteria, regardless of the aforementioned federal and state statutorily protected classes.

Our History

Edinburgh Square is a five story, 96-unit apartment building that opened its doors in 1986. Edinburgh Greens opened in 1991 providing 40 additional apartments. Both buildings are owned by a private, not-for-profit Board of Directors and are sponsored by the League of Older Americans and the Odd Fellows Mountain Dale Lodge #49.

Affordable Lifestyle

Rent at Edinburgh Square is based on your individual income to make it affordable for everyone. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) subsidizes each individual’s rent. Even someone with no income can afford to live at Edinburgh Square. Persons wishing to reside at Edinburgh Square must have an adjusted income that does not exceed federally established income limits for the Roanoke area. The amount paid for rent, including a utility allowance, will not exceed 30% of an eligible resident’s adjusted income. Additionally, water, sewer, and trash removal are included in the rent. Residents are responsible for their own electric bill, and for phone, internet, and cable television service (should they choose to have them). Edinburgh Square does not provide assisted living, nursing, or other care services.
