Methven Central is in the heart of Methven, Canterbury, with everything you need on your doorstep - from a medical centre across the road to access to outdoor pursuits in this picturesque alpine village. We invite you to experience the warmth and community spirit at Methven Central, where we believe our older residents are at the heart of our community, central to everything going on.

We invite you to view our retirement apartments which are available now to purchase. This independent living option will complement Methven Central Care Home set to open in mid 2025 to offer a continuum of care in your later years.

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.
