Scarborough’s Hillcrest Community Offers Modern Manufactured Homes for Seniors
Scarborough, Maine – Hillcrest, a 55‑plus manufactured‑home community just off U.S. Route 1, has been family‑owned and operated for 83 years. The Desfosses family, now in its fourth generation of stewardship, continues to provide a safe, clean, and convenient place for older adults to live independently.
The community’s newest listing is a pre‑owned Pine Grove “Benedicta” manufactured home that has been refreshed with recent upgrades. The unit features new flooring, fresh paint, and central air conditioning. Inside, a modern eat‑in kitchen includes an island, a new microwave, and a new garbage disposal. The primary bedroom contains an ensuite bathroom with a step‑in shower and a spacious walk‑in closet. A covered front porch and an attached one‑car garage add to the home’s comfort.
Hillcrest’s residents benefit from a wide array of amenities designed to support an active lifestyle. An activity center houses a library, a fitness room, and a schedule of age‑appropriate classes and holiday events. Outdoor spaces include a pavilion for picnics, a dog park, and a community garden. A staff program director coordinates the facility’s services, and residents receive scheduled trips to nearby grocery and shopping destinations. Two mornings each month are set aside for errands, such as medical appointments, ensuring that residents can manage their personal needs within the community.
Geographically, Hillcrest is well situated for Southern Maine’s seniors. It lies just outside of Scarborough’s commercial core, with public transportation available nearby. Within a fifteen‑minute drive residents can reach beaches, restaurants, shopping centers, medical facilities, and downtown Portland. The community is also located close to the MaineHealth campus, making health care more accessible for residents.
The Desfosses family has built a reputation for addressing Maine’s senior housing needs through a commitment to quality living environments. Their long‑standing involvement in the community underscores the stability and personal touch that residents have come to expect.
