Cathedral Village. It’s Everything but Ordinary.
"As non-Philadelphians, we loved the excitement of living in center city for 50+ years. But as we started to slow down, we decided to look for a life-care community where we could be free from chores in a beautiful setting, have the opportunity to explore a different area and meet a variety of new people. We found it all here."
