Plenty of aspects in life nowadays benefit from careful forward-planning and retirement is no different.
In the plethora of retirement living choices now available to seniors, Riverview in Maungaturoto stands apart as a not-for-profit option.
Established in 1994, the home is set in park-like grounds with picturesque views to the Kaipara. It offers 14 self-contained two-bedroom villas, with both independent and assisted living options, as well as a new purpose-built dementia care wing.
Chair Graham Slatter says Riverview is totally locally owned and managed, and offers a unique and ethical local community ownership structure that safeguards a person’s investment.
Local doctors operate from an on-site medical centre, and the registered nurse and local physiotherapist are also based on-site.
The purpose built spacious brick and tile villas with internal access garage and concrete driveways, paths and gardens are priced at just under $500,000.
“It rings true that Riverview is indeed a local haven for seniors offering support, companionship and a friendly atmosphere – as well as increased care if ever needed in older years,” Slatter says.
Riverview is managed by the volunteers of the Maungaturoto Community Charitable Trust.
