NOT A DESTINATION

RETIREMENT IS A JOURNEY

Needs and wants change as the years go by and we grow older, but needing to move into a retirement village does not mean it’s the end, retirement is just the next chapter in life and it can be extremely fulfilling. For a long time, Retirement Villages have wrongly been associated with aged care or nursing home facilities, when in fact they offer and pro-actively encourage people to live independently. As we age, our family homes sometimes don’t suit our changing needs and that is where smart design, convenient locations and the no maintenance environment that retirement villages offer, become an appealing choice.

Oak Tree recognise that today’s retirees are looking for a smaller house located within their home town. This is why each Oak Tree village is close to all community and medical facilities. Couple this with the security of gated communities and recreational facilities that residents can use at their leisure, retirement village living moves away from the notion of being aged care. From experience, the Oak Tree Retirement Group can attest that you don’t stop living when you move into a retirement village – life just gets easier.

The Oak Tree Group has a strong regional focus when selecting the location of its villages, allowing seniors to retire peacefully in the towns they feel the most comfortable in. The ageing population in regional communities highlights the need for affordable and accessible housing options for retirees in rural areas. For many to attain an improved lifestyle, communal living represents the most cost-effective option. Downsizing to a village in many cases releases cash for residents to invest and live on, whilst enjoying a maintenance-free lifestyle. Another benefit of retirement living at Oak Tree is that each home has been thoughtfully designed with the future in mind.

General maintenance and repairs are organised by a Village Manager who oversees all aspects of the Village operations.
