How we see Magnolia Gardens

This community offers diligent support from the top down. Seniors here are effusive about the care and attention they receive, and the added joy they feel from the beauty of the landscape, design, and construction. Magnolia Gardens is a great place to live.

Tour the outside of this community and you’ll be impressed by the spectacular exterior's lush gardens and tranquil courtyard. That will give you a sense of the peace you'll feel if you move into this community. You see, you can create a clean, bright, cheerful environment, but to really make people cheerful takes more.

What we've heard from people who live here is that it’s a beautiful place to live, and they’re not just talking about the decor. Some people have been here for seven years or longer, which speaks volumes, we think. In a walk-through of the community, you can see all levels of staff interacting with residents. You’ll hear anecdotes from both seniors and family members about staff taking time to accommodate unusual requests and taking personal time to make residents’ lives better.

Community’s Perspective

How Magnolia Gardens sees itself

What do you do differently or uniquely well?

×

When we opened in 2001, we were one of Langley's very first retirement living communities. Because of this, we have a very strong reputation—everyone knows Magnolia Gardens, and everyone knows someone who has lived in Magnolia Gardens. Our staff team is widely respected and beloved. We're known as a warm, welcoming and caring community. We are honoured to be a pillar in the community of Langley.

What supports do you offer residents as they adjust to life there?

×

Moving to a new community can be challenging, and we have an intentional process to help residents adapt to their new home. Meeting the Managers face to face is a key aspect of this process. Also, new residents are connected with a resident ambassador who visits with them, helps them get to know the lay of the land, and introduces them to new people. Connecting with staff and residents help make the transition to your new home easier.

What five facts about your community should people know?

Hilary O, resident (2023)

I very much enjoy living at Magnolia Gardens. Apart from not having to worry about cooking, cleaning and having bed linens changed and laundered - as well as towels - I like the opportunities to participate - or not! - in a variety of activities, both in-house and in the community. Based on my exper...

• What Bria Family Members Say: Randy's Story
  

  Mom was born and raised in Vancouver and spent the majority of her entire life in Vancouver, so coming to Langley was a big change for her. Losing her partner, the uncertainty, being along, it was very worrisome and troubling for her. My wife and I, after doing our due diligence and looking into seniors’ communities, we chose Magnolia Gardens for my mother. 

  Upon bringing her out here, she was extremely nervous, and I must say, the entire staff, they’ve all been absolutely fabulous at making mom feel so comfortable and welcome. She didn’t know anybody; however, they were quick to introduce her to other members of the community; she has most certainly has picked up some very good and new friends. 

  So the transition to Magnolia Gardens has been so good for her. It’s been comfortable, she feels safe, she absolutely loves her suite, she raves about the meals. And she talks about Michael, the head chef, who not only makes her smile and gives her a good laugh on occasion but also is very accommodating of her choices and her diet.

  After a couple of years of mom being out here, she wouldn’t want to be anywhere else; she’s extremely happy, she’s comfortable, she feels safer than she ever has in her entire life, according to her. And as well she has met some wonderful friends that surely will be lifelong friendships created here. And they have a ball. And she now calls it her forever home as she is so happy and feels so fortunate to be here.

Hi, I'm Jane Bryce. I've been the General Manager at Magnolia Gardens since March 2025. I joined Bria Communities in 2012 and worked as the Sales Manager for many years. I had the pleasure of moving many residents into Magnolia Gardens and getting to know the building and the business well before I became the General Manager at The Wexford, a Bria Community in Tsawwassen, BC. 

Magnolia Gardens is a special place. Not only were we one of Langley's first all-inclusive senior living communities, but we're also the best! Our staff team is second to none and will make you feel part of the family while delivering excellent service. 

Our Executive Chef and his culinary team prepare delicious meals in our kitchen, and you'll especially enjoy their culinary creations on special occasions. 

We have lots of fun, and our Lifestyle & Wellness team specializes in parties, events and social hours that will make you laugh, sing along, and create many special memories. 

We offer two types of supportive senior housing: independent living and a 24-hour licensed Care Centre. You and your family can rest assured, knowing you're in an environment that gives you the freedom to be yourself with the safety and support of a loving community. 

I hope you'll come by for a tour and discover life at Magnolia Gardens. Feel free to contact me directly: [email protected]
