Our Community
As you approach retirement, or even semi-retirement, you may start to think about the next chapter of your life and how you want it to play out. It’s an opportunity to think about what you want and where you want to be. This is a time to feel invigorated, inspired and energised.
Lucas Lifestyle Estate offers those over 50 a fantastic way to enjoy this next chapter of life. But how can you know if you’re ready? Here are five questions to ask yourself.
This is likely the first time in your life that you’ve got unrestricted time to see the world, so go ahead!
Extended holidays are much easier when you’re living in our gated community. You can jet off and know that your home will be safe and secure, your mail will be collected and your gardens will be maintained. And if you’ve got pets, you’ll likely find yourself a generous neighbour to keep them entertained and fed.
Add to that, Lucas Lifestyle Estate is situated among some of Victoria’s most beautiful sceneries. This means you can take shorter, more frequent trips to explore the region, if that’s more your cup of tea.
Whatever style of travel you prefer, owning a home at Lucas Lifestyle Estate can take the stress of home care and maintenance off your mind.
Everything you need to stay active and social is right here.
Staying healthy is made easy with our resort-style facilities. You can:
- Swim laps in the pool
- Challenge a mate to a game on the bowling green
- Explore nearby walking trails
- Workout in the gym
- Cycle around the scenic pathways
And that’s all before you’ve even stepped foot out of our community.
You’ll find an abundance of social opportunities, too. You can:
- Join a walking group
- Enjoy Happy Hour drinks with new friends at the Clubhouse
- Share a meal in the BBQ area
- Learn a new skill alongside others in the arts studio
Maintaining a large home can become more of a burden than a joy, and it can become exhausting. If you're feeling this way, it can be a fantastic opportunity to consider downsizing.
Lucas Lifestyle offers low-maintenance living in beautiful, modern homes. Downsizing unlocks an array of opportunities; Sundays spent mowing the lawn can now be Sundays spent enjoying a coffee at the Clubhouse coffee lounge with new found friends. Time spent vacuuming 4 bedrooms can now be time spent learning a new skill or going on a new adventure.
Looking after your long-term health and happiness is important, and Lucas Lifestyle makes it easy to do just that. There’s a few elements to this.
We are situated close by to shopping centres, healthcare facilities, public transport, and more. All the essentials are here, allowing you to enjoy a balance of independence and convenience.
We've got an active social calendar that aims to keep our communities entertained and connected. This could be anything from walking groups to sunset cocktails.
When life is so busy, finding the time, space and money for a hobby might have been in the too hard basket. But not anymore.
At Lucas Lifestyle, there’s an abundance of hobbies on offer. From the library, to the arts & crafts studio, there’s so many new passions for you to explore.
After years of working hard and having a steady income, the thought of retiring can come with a lot of questions. For many, financial flexibility is at the top of their priority list, making Lucas Lifestyle Estate an appealing option for over 50s. This is for a few reasons:
- Our Lifestyle Estate is part of a land lease community. This means that you own the home and lease the land, which is covered by a weekly site fee.
- There are no entry or exit fees, no council rates payable, and no body corporate or strata fees.
- Government rent assistance is available to eligible homeowners. You can find more about that here.
While it’s always a good idea to consult with a finance professional who knows your personal circumstances, looking into the financial benefits of a Lifestyle Resort can be a great place to start.
The reality is, you’re still young enough to live the lifestyle you deserve and Lucas Lifestyle Estate can afford you freedom and independence. Better yet, you’ll be among a community that shares your passion for staying youthful and vibrant.
