LeGrand in Lee's Summit, MO is a senior living community for people aged 55 and older with ranch-style apartments and plenty of space to walk around thanks to its large courtyard, big yard, and two gazebos for sitting, relaxing, or having community potlucks, lunches, and desserts, and the apartments themselves come in many styles like studio, private, semi-private, or two-bedroom, and all have central air conditioning, a refrigerator, garbage disposal, private entrances, and sometimes even a deck, plus you get laundry either right in your unit or in shared spaces, and snow removal, water, and lawn care are all included in the rent which is handy for older folks who don't want to shovel. Residents can keep one small pet up to 25 pounds for a $400 fee as long as the pet fits the rules. The place is both smoke-free and pet friendly, so there's a clear balance between health rules and companionship. There's easy off-street parking, and walk-in access for those who don't want to climb stairs, plus the clubhouse is always open for games, meals, or grabbing a coffee from one of the three cafes nearby. For those who garden, a tenant garden lets folks grow vegetables, and there are paths and parks all around, including William-Grant Park.
LeGrand runs monthly schedules with group meals and dessert gatherings, and there's always something going on, whether indoors in the clubhouse or outdoors in the yard or gazebos. The facility stands in a quiet area with lots of birds and wildlife, which suits people who appreciate some peace. The facility is managed by MGC Leasing & Property Management, a family-owned group that's been around for decades, and they keep things simple with online move-in applications, self-guided tours through Rently.com, and maintenance-free living, thanks to 24/7 emergency response and live help. Water bills are handled for you, and there's always someone available to help with problems.
Residents get many care options-everything from independent living and ranch apartments for active folks to assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for dementia, and hospice care for those who need it. Home care and rehabilitation services are also available, and both men and women are accepted as residents. Services for off-campus housing, including listings for sublets and roommate searches, are an option, using unique housing names like "Avila," "Calvary Bible College and Theological Seminary," and "Empire Beauty School," so there's a wide net of options. The property has storage, a range, and features like walk-in access and private entrances for extra privacy, and smoke-free indoor areas make it more comfortable for many.
You'll find plenty of support for health needs here, with three hospitals, seven pharmacies, and 19 physicians close by, and if getting out sounds good, there's a theater, 24 restaurants, and three charming cafes just a short trip away. If you want a little quiet outside, there are seven parks nearby. The community runs social programs to bring people together for meals and activities, and aims for a friendly, helpful place with staff who create a welcoming feeling. The memory care part of LeGrand is known for using layouts and features that reduce confusion and wandering, trying to make things calm and safe for those with different needs. Nutritious meals with quality ingredients are provided, and there's transportation help for getting to appointments or outings. LeGrand's ranch apartments fit a retirement lifestyle with easy living, focus on safety, and a straightforward way to settle in. There are benefits too, like a Resident Benefits Package for a monthly fee, which covers things like liability insurance, credit building, and move-in concierge services. Usually, you need to apply online-everyone over 18 must do the application and there's a non-refundable fee. LeGrand is known for offering no-fuss, accessible choices for seniors who want community living, help with everyday needs, or something in between.
