1 bedroom retirement village for sale in Greendale

This inviting life rights unit at Midlands Manor offers the kind of comfort, care and simplicity that makes retirement feel like a reward. Perfectly suited for someone 60 or older, this unit is part of a boutique life rights village designed with quality of life in mind.

Up the stairs, either walking or sitting in the chair lift, this unit is conveniently near the staircase, so you don’t have to go far. Here you’ll find a light-filled, well-kept space that gives you privacy when you want it, and connection when you need it. It comprises a living area, a spacious bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, and a balcony overlooking the fishpond. The bathroom has a shower that is thoughtfully equipped with a rail to hold onto and a chair to sit while showering. With only around 28 residents in total, you’ll enjoy a peaceful, tight-knit community without ever feeling crowded.

Everything you need to live well is already taken care of in your monthly levy. That includes:

• All your meals (plus morning and afternoon tea). Think wholesome, home-style cooking served daily with care.
• Electricity (up to R800/month), water, geyser use, and uncapped Wi-Fi throughout the property.
• Cleaning of your unit twice a week.
• Laundry services, also twice a week.
• Regular maintenance of your home and the gardens.
• Access to a 10-seater shuttle bus for local trips.
• Use of the 20m swimming pool and an easy 300m walk to access the peaceful Umngeni River walks.
• A standby generator to keep things running during load shedding.

There’s also 24/7 care available on-site, with a registered nurse and carers always present. Day-to-day assistance in the common areas is included – whether that’s help getting to meals or settling in for a cup of tea. If more support is needed, that can be assessed and arranged separately so it suits your personal needs.

DSTV, a covered carport or garage, and one-on-one care inside your unit are available at an extra cost. But for most day-to-day living, everything else is sorted – meaning your days are your own to enjoy.

When you’re ready to have friends or family over, Midlands Manor has the space to welcome them – from shared lounges to peaceful garden spots, and even a braai area for sunny afternoons.

This unit is sold on a life rights basis – widely regarded as one of the most stress-free and affordable ways to secure your retirement home. You’ll enjoy lifelong use of your unit, with no worries about rates, levies rising unexpectedly, or maintenance. When the time comes to resell, the profits are shared 50/50 between you (or your estate) and the developer.
