Myrtle Terraces is a senior community in Gainesville with 84 one and two bedroom apartments, including elegant two-bedroom, two-bath units, and you'll find details like energy-efficient lighting, washer and dryer hookups, hardwood-style floors, and lots of closet space, which make moving in easier for people who want comfort and low maintenance, and there's a friendly property manager who looks out for everyone and a helpful maintenance team that takes care of things. Residents pay from $660 for a one-bedroom apartment or $765 for a two-bedroom, and this includes electricity, water, sewage, and trash. The building has elevators for convenience, so it's easier to get around, and you can enjoy a big furnished clubroom, a beauty and barber salon, a TV lounge with a juice bar, a private dining room, and a business center for any small tasks. There's a large courtyard too, with a koi pond, water feature, and a gazebo with a grill area, as well as an 8.4 acre pocket park next door for some quiet time outside, and everything's laid out to feel welcoming and safe.
Activities like BINGO, game nights, and health screenings are held in the clubroom, so there's always a chance to meet people or get involved, and the Wellness/Home Health office is run by Brenau University's Nursing Program team, which means help is nearby. The library gives a calm place to read, while the game and activity rooms offer more space to do crafts, play cards, or just pass the time with friends, and the community is close to stores, restaurants, and recreation, so people don't feel cut off. Myrtle Terraces specializes in care types such as assisted living and dementia care, with dedicated areas and unique programs named for their services, so people with different needs can feel supported, and there are independent living choices for those mainly looking to stay active on their own, but who still want hospitality, dining spaces, and entertainment right where they live.
The Beverly J. Searles Foundation built Myrtle Terraces with help from the Georgia Department of Community Affairs and the City of Gainesville, while Fairway Management, Inc. manages day-to-day operations, and they keep office hours all week, so getting help is simple for residents and their families. Tours can be scheduled with a staff member who will show folks around and give more information about daily life. Staff members at Myrtle Terraces are known for being compassionate, and the whole place tries to make life easier for seniors by offering elder care, memory care, and a comfortable, maintenance-free lifestyle where people can focus on enjoying their days instead of worrying about chores.
