As part of the planned Continuing Care Retirement Community at Carolina Bay at Autumn Hall, Thomas has successfully completed the construction of the Garden Flat buildings. Each of the six lots features a three-story, wood-framed residential building designed for independent living. The Garden Flats consist of 6 units per building, offering 2 or 3-bedroom options, with first-floor covered parking and an elevator servicing each level. The newest additions also include a shared detached garage.

The Cape Fear Heritage-inspired architecture of these buildings showcases large wraparound porches with high ceilings and wide eaves, complemented by high-end luxury finishes that enhance the spacious apartment living experience. Residents also enjoy access to the main Carolina Bay campus amenities, including community rooms, dining facilities, parking, and comprehensive nursing care tailored to different levels of need.
