Nestled on 124 picturesque acres in Concord, The Gardens of Taylor Glen offers a vibrant, independent lifestyle designed to help residents make the most of their retirement years. With responsibilities for maintenance and housekeeping lifted from their shoulders, residents are free to focus on the activities and relationships that matter most. As an area’s premier Life Plan Community, Taylor Glen ensures residents enjoy not only peace of mind but also a wide array of opportunities for engagement, socialization, and leisure.
The community’s independent living options are both diverse and thoughtfully designed to suit a variety of tastes and needs. Apartment homes range from cozy one-bedroom layouts to spacious two-bedroom floor plans, each featuring quality finishes and maintenance-free living. For those seeking a bit more space and privacy, standalone cottage homes and stylish villa apartments are available in a new neighborhood centered around a shared green space. These villa apartments feature such amenities as underbuilding parking and convenient elevator access, while cottage homes afford residents scenic views and easy access to all the community has to offer.
Life at Taylor Glen is intentionally active and engaging. Residents can participate in water aerobics, yoga classes, bridge club, and Bible study, as well as enjoy movie nights and outings to local attractions. The community fosters a healthy, enriching environment where personal interests are encouraged and residents can pursue both new and familiar hobbies as they wish. A picturesque pond with a gazebo, scenic walking and biking paths, and thoughtfully landscaped gardens add to the serene and communal atmosphere.
As a Life Plan Community, Taylor Glen offers an on-site continuum of care to meet residents’ evolving health needs. If health circumstances change—whether it’s recovering from hip surgery or requiring assistance with daily activities like dressing or medication management—residents have access to a caring and professional staff available around the clock. The community features a dedicated program called Mindful Impressions, designed to support those with memory care needs by nurturing meaningful connections in a safe, supportive setting. Taylor Glen is also home to North Carolina’s first GREEN HOUSE® home, further expanding its ability to offer individualized care in a comfortable, residential environment.
Taylor Glen extends services from skilled nursing care to physical, occupational, and speech therapy, all provided by a compassionate interdisciplinary team in comfortable surroundings. Rehabilitation can be managed on-campus, fostering both continuity and comfort during recovery. Beyond their program of clinical care, Taylor Glen sustains an active Foundation dedicated to supporting residents in need, subsidizing medications, and enhancing the greater community experience.
The daily atmosphere at Taylor Glen is lively and welcoming, filled with moments of joy and connection. Residents are often seen sharing stories in the pool, gardening, enjoying heart-healthy meals in modern kitchens, and spending quiet moments with friends and loved ones. Whether it’s the camaraderie of a bridge game, the peacefulness of fishing from a pondside gazebo, or the simple pleasures of a walk through the gardens, every element of life at Taylor Glen is shaped to provide comfort, security, and fulfillment in a supportive community setting.
