What Sarah does for the move-in

Sarah Ingles, REALTOR® SRES® CPCU®, lists and sells your existing Des Moines metro home on a timeline that aligns with Grand Living's deposit and move-in calendar. CPCU® pre-listing insurance review, pricing strategy, and a closing date that doesn't strand you between addresses.

Welcome to Grand Living

Where FIRST CLASS HAPPINESS® meets luxury senior living in West Des Moines

Grand Living at Tower Place represents the ultimate in luxury senior living — a $52 million, 230,000-square-foot community that redefines what retirement can look like. Developed by Ryan Companies and managed by Grand Living, this five-story masterpiece at 540 S 51st Street in West Des Moines opened in 2024 and offers 176 beautifully appointed apartments.

What sets Grand Living apart is their unwavering commitment to FIRST CLASS HAPPINESS® — a philosophy that infuses every aspect of life here with joy, engagement, and purpose. From the moment you enter the grand lobby to the exceptional dining experiences in three distinct venues, everything is designed to exceed expectations.

One unique feature: couples can age in place together, even if one spouse needs more care than the other. Rather than separating to different floors or buildings, couples share the same apartment while staff meets each person's individual needs.

The community features a 160-seat performance theater, library, craft room, pet spa, massage rooms, beauty salon, and rooms for visiting physicians making rounds.
