Magnolia Heights Gracious Retirement Living

Magnolia Heights Gracious Retirement Living sits in Franklin, MA, and serves adults aged 55 and older, offering independent living starting at $3,615 a month. The community stands out by allowing residents to bring pets, choose from more than 40 floor plans for studios, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments-some with vaulted ceilings and large windows-and enjoy features like air conditioning, basic cable, weekly housekeeping and linen service, and 24-hour emergency pull cords. Residents walk through well-maintained grounds with patios and gardens, spend time in a library with a fireplace, a movie theater, a billiards and card room, a TV room, a fitness center, and a beauty salon and barber shop, or relax in lounges designed for comfort, where puzzles and books are always close by for those quiet moments. Magnolia Heights offers three chef-prepared meals each day in the dining area, a 24/7 bar for coffee, snacks, and fruit, and menus that focus on fresh ingredients. Many appreciate the scheduled transportation services for shopping, doctor visits, and local outings, plus community activities, trips, and events designed to keep everyone engaged-there's exercise classes, arts and crafts, and even a resident travel program that lets you stay in a guest suite at other locations for up to seven nights with meals and activities included. Safety features like fire alarms, sprinklers, and emergency systems are woven throughout the building's three stories. Independent living is at the heart, but there's also assisted living, memory care tailored for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, respite stays, nursing home care, continuing care, home care, and basic help provided by a local homecare partner for those who need it, especially with daily tasks like bathing or medication. Magnolia Heights Gracious Retirement Living welcomes residents to tour the property, look over the amenities, meet friendly, joyful staff who pitch in throughout the day, talk to current residents, and get a real sense of the community and its hospitality-focused culture-you'll notice organized group trips, planned meals, transportation, and a place where people enjoy staying active and connected. Payments are accepted by check, and monthly rent covers all the basics like utilities, meals, activities, and staff support, so residents don't have to worry about many extra bills.
