Welcome to Riverview, a secluded complex for seniors in the heart of the Kaipara!
Riverview offers a ‘home away from home’ in the heart of the Kaipara, both an independent living and assisted care facility for seniors in the wider Maungaturoto district. Situated looking out over the mighty Otamatea River not only does Riverview enable tranquil fully independent living, if increased assistance becomes necessary, personalised authentic care options are also available in our refurbished Rest Home and in our newly-built Secure Dementia Unit with further expansion on the near horizon!
General Information
Affectionately known as ‘own-your-owns’ there are a total of 14 fully self-contained attractive villas available for seniors to purchase.
Set in stunning tranquil surroundings with views out to the mighty Otamatea River and nestled into attractive gardens while facing the sun, these units contain 2 bedrooms including one with an ensuite, and offer a village-like friendly atmosphere.
These are well suited to couples with a spacious layout offering peace of mind that should more assistance be required in the future, assisted care options are available on-site. The medical centre being on-site is another additional advantage, along with local shops, a post centre, pharmacy and cafe being located very closely nearby.
Well appointed, these units include a dishwasher, landline and fibre internet, internal access garage, concrete parking and entrance areas – some with exterior sensor lighting. Our reliable gardening and lawn mowing personnel take care of all of the hard work leaving you to enjoy your retirement!
These are independently valued and offered for sale when available, before being fully redecorated when required by the Trust ready for new owners.

Testimonials
| Jill Mills – “I find living in Riverview’s Independent Living village ideal as it is close to the medical centre and pharmacy within an easy walking distance. There is easy access from the main road with good footpaths for all the residents.” Denise Meiklejohn – “I chose to buy a unit at Riverview in the independent living area as I felt it was time for me to retire. I have not for a moment regretted my decision, made seven years ago." Elizabeth Ludlam – "We retained an independent lifestyle, without having to be maintain repairs and maintenance on an older home. Have a much smaller area of gardens to set up as we wished, and bliss – someone else is responsible to mow the lawns!" |

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.
