Ararat Gardens is a 175-bed senior living community in Glendale, operated by the Ararat Home nonprofit organization, which was founded in 1949. The community offers independent living, assisted living, and post-acute skilled nursing on a campus known for its tall trees, lush landscaping, and well-maintained grounds.
Located in a quiet residential neighborhood convenient to downtown Glendale, Pasadena, and Los Angeles, the community features chef-prepared daily meals, wellness and cultural programs, and maintenance-free apartments and cottage homes. Ararat Gardens has a strong connection to the Armenian community while welcoming residents from all backgrounds.
Backed by a nonprofit with 75+ years of history
Ararat Home was founded in 1949. That's over seven decades of organizational experience in senior care. The nonprofit model means no profit motive driving decisions, and the depth of institutional knowledge is substantial.
Campus with genuinely well-kept grounds
Multiple reviews specifically mention the beautiful tall trees, flowers, courtyard spaces, and overall cleanliness. When visitors independently praise the physical environment, it's a signal that the facility invests in maintenance and aesthetics. Verify this in person.
Post-acute care available on campus
Having skilled nursing and post-acute care on the same campus as assisted living means residents can recover from hospitalizations without transferring to a separate facility. Continuity of environment during recovery is a meaningful quality-of-life factor.
Cultural connection for Armenian families
Ararat Gardens has deep roots in the Armenian community, which is significant in Glendale where the Armenian population is one of the largest in the US. For Armenian families, this cultural familiarity can ease the transition to community living.
