Making life easier

MOUNTAIN View Leongatha is a boutique lifestyle village in the heart of South Gippsland, offering a stylish and vibrant community for the over 55s or semi-retired. Mountain View villas are new two or three bedroom master built homes, all single story living, all with private rear gardens and available from as little as $146,500, with no deferred management fees.
This means that buyers may have money left over from the sale of their home to invest and create an additional income to supplement a pension?
As any one considering retirement living options knows, security, both financial and environmental, are of utmost importance, as well as the ability to leave the villa to go on holiday knowing someone else is maintaining the home!
The low maintenance, five-star environmentally rated brick homes with emergency on call services offer immediate peace of mind.
A bowling green, heated indoor pool, stylish residents’ lounge all helps, of course!
With reduced living costs, more time and money available to them, residents can concentrate on the aspects of living that make them feel good about themselves! Whether it be bowling, golfing, boating or perhaps walking and cycling on the South Gippsland Rail Trail, there is plenty to do!
Secure boat and caravan parking is also available on site.
Leongatha is a town of 6000 people in the heart of South Gippsland.
The town is a service centre for surrounding areas and has had a state-of-the-art hospital upgrade, it boosts two golf clubs, assorted shops and a cinema.
Proximity to Melbourne and the Latrobe Valley, great public transport and natural clean air are other bonuses.
There’s plenty to explore locally with an array of attractions, tourist sites and natural surroundings to discover.
From the iconic wonder of Wilson’s Promontory National Park to the neighbouring towns of Koonwarra, Fish Creek and Meeniyan, not forgetting the magnificent coastline of Inverloch, Venus Bay and Kilcunda, the choices are endless.
Museums, gardens, award winning wineries and sampling artisan produce at local farmers’ markets are just some of the attractions.
This is the place to pursue interests and an even better place to join friends and neighbours doing the same.
Mountain View regularly gives free presentations to showcase lifestyle and financial options for retirees.
Speakers offer information based on lifestyle possibilities for the over 55s, with a question and answer session to discuss how sound planning and decision making can assist in making the most of the future.
Those who are passionate about life and over 55 should phone 1300 306 255 for more information or to book a guest speaker to visit local clubs or community groups.
