Fox Hill Village

What Fox Hill Village does

Fox Hill Village is a privately-held, resident-owned senior living cooperative established in 1990 in Westwood, Massachusetts, operating as a Life Plan Community on a 110-acre campus with over 700,000 sq ft of buildings. Residents purchase cooperative stock linked to their apartment home (16 floor plans ranging from 584 to 2,200+ sq ft), receiving shareholder status, governance rights including voting on budgets and Board of Directors elections, and the contractual right to recoup 85% of the selling price of their share upon departure. Monthly service fees cover amenities, dining, fitness, and maintenance, while healthcare services (Health and Wellness Center, Birch Grove Assisted Living, White Oak Cottages Memory Care using the Green House Model, and Support Services) are delivered on a pay-for-service basis across the continuum of care.

The business model blends a one-time capital contribution (cooperative share purchase) with recurring monthly service fees and pay-for-service healthcare revenue, supported by direct-to-consumer sales via website, in-person tours, phone inquiries, and resident referrals including 20+ documented second-generation residents. The 251-500 employee operation is led by CEO Felix Rosenwasser (appointed September 2022), CFO Roger E. Randall, and CSO Sarah Anne Pompeo, with a resident-elected Board of Directors including President Bob Bettacchi. Additional revenue streams include interior design and renovation services via the on-site Design Center (launched December 2022). The community offers three dining venues, a fitness center, heated indoor pool, golf simulator, art studio, woodshop, walking trails, 60+ raised garden beds, EV charging, and a Baker West wing addition.

The community was co-developed with Massachusetts General Hospital in 1990, added White Oak Cottages memory care in 2012 via partnership with The Green House Project, and Birch Grove assisted living in 2021. Sustainability initiatives include EV charging, solar panels, LED conversion, composting, and single-use plastic reduction. The operation is geographically concentrated in Westwood (Norfolk County, MA), serves approximately 251-500 employees and several hundred residents, and is governed entirely by a resident shareholder Board with no external parent company or controlling entity identified.
