A modern and vibrant residential community! Designed for active older adults who are interested in friendship, fitness and cultural opportunities. The Avant is based on—and built next to—Palo Alto Commons, the finest assisted living community on the Peninsula for more than 24 years. Closely connected with the dedicated staff and management at Palo Alto Commons, The Avant offers the same excellent service in a fresh take on independent living. No wonder it's quickly becoming known as the place where savvy seniors are moving to live smart and age well.
