At Serenity Gardens, our pricing structure reflects a thoughtful balance between quality care and competitive rates. For a semi-private room, residents can expect to pay $3,500 per month, which is notably lower than the Northumberland County average of $4,458, while still remaining slightly below the statewide average of $3,542 in Pennsylvania. Our studio accommodations are priced at $4,700, which is on the higher end compared to both local and state averages; however, this price point underscores the premium services and amenities we offer. For those seeking more space, our one-bedroom units are available at $5,225 - a figure that exceeds both the county's average of $3,436 and Pennsylvania's average of $4,006. This variance illustrates our commitment to providing an enriching living experience that prioritizes resident well-being alongside transparent pricing adapted to meet diverse needs.
