Overview of The Enclave at Chandler Senior Living

The Enclave at Chandler Senior Living sits at 4950 W Chandler Blvd in Chandler, Arizona. Its three-story building holds 115 units, split between studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts, and the community covers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in one place. Seven years in, it’s past the early-days phase and into a steadier rhythm.

Walkability here lands right in the middle. With a Walk Score of 53, some errands are doable on foot, and others still need a car. That middle-ground setup shows up inside too, where the amenities split evenly between mental engagement and physical movement. There’s an art studio, a library, and a music room for residents who’d rather stay in, plus walking paths and courtyards for those who want to step outside.

Support services cover the basics that let daily life run smoothly: housekeeping, maintenance, cleaning, and transportation, so getting somewhere doesn’t depend on family being free that day. A fitness and recreation program adds structure to the week. Marcia Turner runs the community day-to-day, and Chandler 2 Operator, LLC owns it.

Like every licensed assisted living facility in Arizona, this one gets inspected by the state’s Department of Health Services through its Bureau of Long Term Care Licensing. Past reviews have centered on a few recurring areas: emergency preparedness, how hazardous materials get handled, and how care gets documented.

Put together, the picture is a mid-sized community built for people who want structure without losing options, with three housing sizes, transportation covered, and a real split between indoor and outdoor space.
