Discovering Your Dream Retirement Home
Retirement is a new chapter in life, offering the chance to find a living space that truly reflects your style and needs. At RV Lifestyle Village Oceanside, we understand the importance of offering a home that is comfortable, accessible, and stylish. Here are some tips to consider when searching for your dream retirement home.
Embrace Open-Plan Living
Open-plan designs are perfect for creating a spacious, airy feel in your home. This layout enhances the flow of natural light and makes it easier to navigate, which is particularly beneficial as we age. Look for homes that offer large windows and sliding doors to blend indoor and outdoor living spaces seamlessly. At RV Lifestyle Village, our homes feature generously sized alfresco areas, perfect for enjoying Queensland’s beautiful weather year-round.
Prioritise Accessibility
While it’s not something we like to think about, as we grow older, accessibility becomes a crucial factor to consider in home design. Consider whether doorways and hallways are wide enough to accommodate mobility aids should you need to use one, even on a temporary basis. Opt for a single-level home to avoid the need for stairs, or ensure there is a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. In the bathroom, consider walk-in showers with the ability to install grab bars for added safety.
Invest in Quality Fixtures and Finishes
Your retirement home should be a haven of comfort and style. Investing in high-quality fixtures and finishes can make a significant difference to not only the look of your home, but also its longevity. European kitchen appliances, floor-to-ceiling tiled bathrooms, premium, solution-dyed nylon carpet and ducted air conditioning are just a few of the premium features that we offer as standard in our homes at RV Lifestyle Village. These touches enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home, come with generous warranty periods and provide the level of comfort you deserve.
Personalise Your Space
One of the joys of retirement is finally having the time to pursue your hobbies and interests. Customising your home to include dedicated spaces for these activities can enhance your quality of life. Whether it’s a craft room, a workshop, or a mezzanine floor for extra storage, the possibilities are endless. At RV Lifestyle Village, our oversized RV garages provide ample space for customisation, allowing you to create a functional and personalised area to suit your needs.
A new home and a better quality of life
Research has shown that people living in a gated community like RV Lifestyle Village Oceanside, are more physically, mentally and emotionally fit than people their same age who choose not to. RV Oceanside offers a fantastic range of amenities from a resort-style lagoon pool and gymnasium to an art and craft studio and a library, meaning there is always something to keep you active and engaged. Additionally, with a community of over 250 people, you’ll have ample opportunity to meet like-minded people and make new friends.
Choosing your dream retirement home is about finding something that reflects your lifestyle and meets your needs now, but also in the future. At RV Lifestyle Village Oceanside, we are here to help you select a home that is uniquely you and perfect for the next chapter in your life.
