At Celebration Villa, our focus is to support our residents’ independence and overall wellness. We treat all residents as respected members of our family. We understand the importance of our residents having a feeling of connection, community, comfort, and caring.

    Our community is a one-level, ranch-style senior community that has been a part of Duncansville, just minutes away from Altoona, since 1998. Residents enjoy a cozy atmosphere with beautiful views of the Allegheny Mountains. Nestled in a secluded hillside setting, we are still minutes away from nearby shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. Residents can choose to fill their social cards with events and group activities or further their personal growth through creative, spiritual and educational opportunities.
