Manor · I
Manor One
Our largest manor, with the widest range of layouts — from efficient one-bedroom homes to spacious two-bedroom plans with formal dining.
Independent Senior Living · Three Manor Communities
A quiet, single-story neighborhood to call your own.
The Manors are three garden-court communities built for independent adults 55 and better — private one- and two-bedroom homes, walkable courtyards, and neighbors who look out for one another.
Welcome Home
Comfortable, private homes. A genuine community.
Every residence at The Manors is a ground-level home with its own front door — no elevators, no long corridors. Homes open onto landscaped courtyards and shaded walkways, with the community room, laundry, and mailboxes just a short stroll away.
Whether you're looking for a cozy one-bedroom or a roomier two-bedroom with a formal dining area, there's a layout here that fits the way you live.
