Exceeding Expectations at Glenfern

There are many reasons why over 50s consider a land lease community as a retirement option from financial considerations, to living in a dream location or to finding a more relaxed pace of life. For Glenfern resident, June and her husband, it was simply about concentrating on living life, rather than being tied down to their big family home.

Considered a private bushland retreat, Glenfern is located in Thrumster a 10-minute drive from the vibrant town of Port Macquarie. “Coming from a country area, it felt like coming home with the trees and just the freshness,” said June. The region is known for its vibrant culture and beautiful surrounds making it a popular area for retirees.

A coastal lifestyle often comes with a large price tag however the land lease living model can make it possible to live in your desired location. Glenfern has a resort like feel offering over 50s an exceptional lifestyle with a range of amenities and affordable homes with modern, stylish and timeless designs.

The Headland home offers split living with an inbuilt lift for future needs, whilst the Shelley offers two bedrooms plus a study for flexibility. Downsizing doesn’t mean boring, it means choosing a design and finishes that align with what your next chapter of life looks like.

“We always had planned to downsize. We had a big home… and a big garden. We wanted to concentrate on lifestyle as opposed to being tied to a big home,” said June. Throughout the range of designs, you will find beautiful kitchens with stone bench tops and quality appliances, spacious master bedrooms complete with ensuite, dormer windows harnessing the natural light, open plan living, and outdoor alfresco areas perfect for entertaining. “The quality of their homes here exceed all our expectations… I’ve been into other homes and other designs of homes, they are all very special,” said June.
