A new way of living in Western Sydney

Live where you love with a Hometown over 50s community

Buying into a Hometown Australia land lease communities in NSW is about loving where you live and living where you love. What’s the difference? Well, at Hometown we think the location of your new home is just as important as the floorplan and benchtops. We want you to love living in your brand new home, and we want the location to be the place you love to live.

That’s Hometown Australia has  lots of locations around NSW, from the sunny Gold Coast to the suburbs of Sydney. There are so many reasons to move to one of the Western Sydney locations. In this article we’ll be discussing what makes these communities so beloved, the benefits of land lease living, and how you can get the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of with Hometown.

Why choose a Western Sydney-based Ccommunity?

If you’re already based in Sydney, Stanhope Gardens and Penrith locations make perfect sense for your golden years. With homes in the Western Sydney land lease communities for sale, you get a multitude of benefits without the drawbacks of moving away.

Firstly, you’ll get to stay in the area you know and love, near all the streets and parks that feel like home. The location makes it easy for you to stay in touch with all your old friends; you might have moved into a Hometown community, but you’ll still be close by for a cuppa or a weeknight dinner.

You’ll also be able to keep your traditions and hobbies going without interruption, whether that’s playing with your usual sports team or meeting with your book club.

Hometown Australia’s Western Sydney locations also make it easier on your family. Only an hour’s drive from the Sydney CBD (or even less if they live in the suburbs), your family will easily be able to visit you and vice versa. There’s no need to stop hosting family events — you’ll still have the space and be near enough to have everyone over for birthdays and holidays.

Uproot your house but not your life at one of Hometown Australia’s Western Sydney locations.
