Staff at Renaissance Retirement Living are firm believers that your retirement years really can be the best time of your life.
That's why it's so important to find a home that will suit you down to the ground - that you'll love living in for years to come.
Here are the Renaissance team's top seven tips for the home design features that can make a big difference to your retirement lifestyle:
- A low set home for easy access: When you're enjoying your retirement lifestyle you won't want to be travelling up and down umpteen stairs. For this reason, a home that's set low with no stumps or stairs is best. It'll help your knees enjoy their retirement years too!
- A choice of designs to ideally suit your needs: Many retirement villages only offer a single 'cookie cutter' home design. If that doesn't suit, look for a retirement village that has a choice of different designs with the ideal number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and features you're looking for.
- High build quality with practical features: You don't want to spend your retirement years doing odd jobs around the house and making repairs to things that really shouldn't need them. A home with high build quality, innovative design features, and good quality fixtures and fittings that can improve life quality.
- A home with laundry and kitchen in close proximity: Once you've retired, you don't want to be traipsing a long way every time you just want to put the kettle on or do a load of washing. Take the time to look for a retirement house with these critical rooms within easy reach.
- Ample storage space: This feature might seem like a small thing, but it can make a big difference. After all, you don't want to compromise either on your hobbies, or your ability to have friends or family over to stay. Check to make sure there is enough storage for all your valuables. This will make a big difference.
- Peace-of-mind from home security features: It's very important to feel comfortable and safe when you're at home in retirement. Security screens on all doors, three stage locking windows and movement-activated outdoor sensor lights can all give you safety and peace-of-mind.
- Visit Renaissance Retirement Living: Your decision about where to live in retirement is important. You're invited to visit Renaissance Victoria Point to see for yourself.
