Designs to Suit Your Stage of Life: Explore the Range of Stunning Hometown Australia Homes

You deserve to enjoy your golden years in style — and for many Australians, that means living by the seaside. With this in mind, Hometown Australia is committed to providing exceptional living spaces in the most desirable coastal locations.

Each community follows the Land Lease Living model, which is a smart choice for anyone over 50 looking to free up some equity by downsizing without compromising on lifestyle. Let’s explore three Hometown Australia communities that offer incredible amenities for an active and engaging lifestyle: The Pines Woolgoolga, Glenfern Thrumster, and Beachfront Hallidays Point.

The Pines, Woolgoolga

Tossing up between a seachange and a treechange? Why settle for one when you can have both! Hometown Australia’s The Pines is located in the natural bushland surrounding Hearnes Lake, just moments from Woolgoolga Beach.

Enjoy the fresh air and be amongst nature with one of the many hikes in the area, or play a round on the half tennis court. The community dog park means there’s always something to do — even for your furry friends. There are homes for sale in The Pines, Woolgoolga to suit any style, including one of our most popular designs, The Lyrebird.

The Lyrebird: Lock & Leave Design

The Lyrebird is a modern design that seamlessly combines the kitchen, dining, and living into one welcoming space. The open-plan design flows out onto a porch at the front and a deck at the back. Picture yourself sipping your morning coffee on the front porch or hosting guests for an alfresco dinner party on the back deck.

Versatile & Inviting

The Lyrebird in The Pines is an easy living design that offers all the benefits of your family home — but on a downsized scale. A separate laundry room is both convenient and speaks to the practicality of this design. A double undercover carport has enough room for two cars, or a car and camper trailer. This lock-and-leave style home is perfect for anyone looking to spend their golden years travelling.

The Lyrebird is just one of the designs available at The Pines community; check out the other styles on offer here.

Glenfern, Thrumster

If you have loved ones in both Sydney and Brisbane, Hometown Australia’s Glenfern is your perfect spot. Located in Thrumster, just 10 minutes from Port Macquarie, Glenfern is in between these two cities — making visits all the easier.

Enjoy resort-style living at Glenfern. When the sun is shining, swim a few laps in the pool or host a BBQ with your new friends. On the dreary days, catch a movie in the cinema or tinker in the resident workshop. There’s never a dull moment at Glenfern! Let’s take a look at one of the styles of homes for sale at Glenfern, Thrumster.
