Harvest Park Residence, also known as J and M Enterprise, sits at 33 Flower Avenue in Floral Park, NY, and gives seniors a place that feels more like a home than a big facility, since there are fewer residents, so caregivers and seniors get to know each other better, and folks who want to live in a tight-knit, familiar setting may like this kind of environment. The house itself has over 4,000 square feet, 11 bedrooms, and 6 bathrooms, with a big eat-in kitchen that opens into the living room and a formal dining room with a wood-burning fireplace, plus there's a front porch where somebody can sit out and read, and a backyard with a patio and grass that works for small gatherings or just relaxing outdoors. They've set up the first floor so bedrooms, an office, laundry room, and full bathrooms are easy to reach, and upstairs has even more bedrooms and bathrooms, while the legal third-floor apartment, with two bedrooms, its own AC, separate electric, two staircases, lots of storage, and a sprinkler system, offers more privacy and flexibility for residents or even caregivers living on site.
Care services at Harvest Park Residence include help with grooming, reminders to take medication, assistance with cooking and cleaning, and staff are around 24 hours a day, so help's always close, while skilled nursing, wound care, diabetes management-including insulin monitoring-and round-the-clock medical support cover most needs, including memory care, with special programs and activities for folks living with Alzheimer's or dementia. There's plenty of attention to safety with security systems, fire sprinkler systems, and the whole property sits on a large corner lot with a detached, two-car garage for parking and easy access for visitors or transportation. The building, which started as a single-family home in 1954 and later was converted in the 1990s for senior housing, has high ceilings, an open floor plan, wall-to-wall carpeting, hardwood floors in some spaces, and appliances like a dishwasher, washer, dryer, oven, and refrigerator for a true home-like setting.
The house sits close to public transit-both LIRR and buses-plus local schools, shops, recreation centers with pools and sports, and houses of worship, so outings are easy if someone wants to get out. For daily life, there are meals provided, both on-site and off-site activities to keep residents active and social, indoor common areas for gathering, devotional activities for spiritual support, and pet-friendly options along with Wi-Fi and high-speed internet so residents can stay connected to family. The monthly cost for a private room is $3,900. With personal support services, including help with daily activities like dressing and bathing, independent living with added help if needed, and memory programs for those with dementia, each resident's needs are met with honest, simple care in a friendly, well-kept house that focuses on safety and comfort.
