Edgewater Village is a well-established retirement village across four acres and has been recently transformed in the best possible way. This well-love village now has a whole new lease on life. From brand new apartments to fantastic new facilities, we’ve revitalised everything it has to offer. With new energy, new ways to enjoy retirement and its same warm and welcoming heart, there’s simply no better time to become part of his friendly and close-knit community.
At Edgewater you’ll step straight into a warm, friendly community where staff and residents have your best interests at heart. Our emphasis is on care, connection and ensuring you have everything you need to thrive.
Within the village itself you’ll discover a vibrant social programme where you can indulge your interests and share time with friends. We have vegetable gardens for green-thumbed residents, a new café with delicious food and drinks on offer to enjoy with family and friends, new pool, gym, hairdresser, and activities space, lounges and outdoor spaces. What's more, there is onsite care home to cater to future health needs if required.
Edgewater Village is also closely connected to the wider neighbourhood and all it has to offer. Just a short distance away you’ll find a shopping centre filled with useful services including a pharmacy, as well as a number of cafés and the local library. A bus stop at the end of the road provides easy access to the city. Here’s simply no better time to become part of this wonderful place.

NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who ‘buy’ into a retirement village. If you intend to ‘purchase’ you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Some Retirement Village type facilities are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please make sure you investigate fully.
In some villages there may be some Retirement Village units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
