At Friendship Village of South Hills, senior living residences provide a setting for intuitive living. From well-appointed one-bedroom apartments to expansive carriage homes with attached garages, the collection of layouts feels varied, flexible, and intentionally residential.
A Distinguished Place to Call Home, Designed for How You Want to Live
Rather than offering a single approach to apartment living, Friendship Village of South Hills presents a wide range of layouts that reflect how residents actually use their space. Some favor open living and dining areas that support hosting. Others look for dens, second bedrooms, or defined nooks that allow work, hobbies, or quiet time to coexist comfortably within the home.
Across residence types, shared features support day-to-day living: contemporary appliances, high-end finishes, generous storage, pet-friendly options, and in-home laundry in select layouts. Weekly housekeeping and on-site maintenance reduce the friction of household upkeep, allowing residences to remain places of enjoyment rather than obligation.

Just beyond the front door, residents have easy access to dining venues, fitness and wellness spaces, and cultural programming throughout Friendship Village of South Hills.

Residences like Cherry and Chestnut connect generous living areas directly to dining spaces and private porches, creating natural settings for shared meals and conversation. Maple, Hemlock, and Elm introduce larger footprints with flexible living or den areas that accommodate changing interests over time.
For those seeking the most expansive apartment options, two-bedroom-plus-den layouts such as Poplar and Rosebud provide room to gather, work, and retreat, with well-proportioned bedrooms and private baths that keep personal space intact.
From Layout to Lifestyle
Two-bedroom residences often become natural gathering places. Guest rooms stay ready for visiting family. Dens support ongoing projects or focused work.

Apartments range from efficient alcove and one-bedroom options to spacious two-bedroom residences, each offering private baths, well-proportioned living areas, and room for personal furnishings, artwork, and familiar routines.
Layouts are organized to support daily life with ease and continuity. Galley kitchens allow residents to prepare coffee or light meals, while shared living areas encourage time spent together when desired. In larger two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus layouts, separate sleeping areas and private baths preserve personal space while allowing shared living to feel natural rather than forced. Private terraces or patios in select residences extend living space outward, offering an additional place to sit, read, or welcome visitors.
Across all assisted living residences, the focus remains on maintaining a sense of home. Storage accommodates long-held belongings, proportions remain residential rather than institutional, and layouts allow residents to continue familiar patterns while having access to additional services nearby within a setting they already know well.
Choosing a Senior Living Apartment That Supports How You Live
Selecting a residence often starts with paying attention to the rhythms of your day—where you prefer to gather, how you like to spend time on your own, and which details make daily routines feel effortless. The strongest choices tend to echo how you already live, while offering flexibility for interests that may take on a larger role over time.
