Sugar Maple Commons sits on a 20-acre site in Grove City, Ohio, built for adults age 55 and older who want to keep active, have their own space, and enjoy budget-friendly living, and while meals and on-site healthcare aren't included, the place centers its design around easy living and community, with single-story apartments that have open floor plans, vaulted ceilings, dens, patios, oversized garages, and luxury touches, plus universal design features for accessibility and safety, so moving around is simple. The community offers both Independent Living and Senior Apartments, with one-bedroom units starting at $2,509 a month and two-bedroom units starting at $2,823 a month, though the first batch of one-bedroom units is currently sold out and only two-bedrooms are available until Phase 2 opens. People can pick from services and features that best match what they need, and the total monthly price will go up or down depending on room type, services, and level of care.
Sugar Maple Commons supports independence by focusing on activities that keep folks moving and give purpose to each day, so there are group activities, social events, chances to learn new things, and entertainment planned to help keep minds and bodies strong. The staff are trained and work to make everyone feel at home and secure. The community follows HOPA rules, meaning at least 80% of the residents must be 55 or older, which creates a calm and comfortable environment for seniors.
The apartments are designed to feel roomy and private, while giving easy access to shared areas, and there are gathering spaces like The Commons-a large clubhouse with designer touches, a Wifi café, exercise rooms, billiards room, liquor lockers, big TV, fire pit and outdoor patio, always ready for meet-ups or events. There's a community garden with raised beds for those who like to grow veggies, herbs, or flowers, and pets are welcome, too.
People can get help with daily living activities if needed, and though there's no full service dining hall, dining services and options revolve around residents' needs. On the grounds, folks find walking paths, a well-equipped exercise area, and access to nearby Scioto Grove Metro Park or Pinnacle Golf Club for outings. Each home is maintenance-free, so staff takes care of repairs and upkeep, letting residents focus on hobbies or relaxing.
If someone wants to see what life is like there, Sugar Maple Commons gives tours to show the apartments, social events, and amenities. New residents get easy online tools like a Residential Portal for paying rent, setting up maintenance, checking the calendar, and contacting the Community Manager, as well as an option to sign up for a newsletter with updates. Residents also have access to concierge services, offering help with errands, travel, shopping, and reservations. The community aims to help seniors keep active, safe, social, and comfortable-all while respecting independence and keeping things simple.
