Como’s best-kept secret for over-55s looking to settle into a community whilst keeping their independence, Meath Care Como currently has two one-bedroom, one-bathroom villas for sale.

The lease-for-life villas present a range of features at an affordable price, according to Seniors Own Sales Consultant Brett Nosworthy.

“What’s great about the layouts of the properties is their modern fit-out,” he said.

“The style is one of ergonomic simplicity. If you’re scaling down, you can unburden yourself of all your things and live in a less complicated, more modern way.

“The villas feature abundant natural light and a pleasant outlook over the gardens and walkways, with some even looking over the Collier Park Golf Course.”

Mr Nosworthy said the one and two-bedroom villas in the village were semi-detached and featured easy-to-live-with neutral colours.

“There is ample storage space, from the floor-to-ceiling laundry cupboards to a double-door linen closet close to the bathroom,” he said.

“Each home also has a spacious lock-up storage room with power.

“Off the living area is a secluded walled courtyard which is overlooked from the kitchen, and there is a covered car bay located close, as well as ample parking for visitors.”

Meath Care’s relaxed and friendly community is what makes it so attractive, according to Mr Nosworthy.

“The lifestyle is friendly and caring with lots of activities available to all residents, but the overall day-to-day atmosphere here is one of serenity,” he said.

“The country atmosphere here is amazing.

“Lush, landscaped grounds evoke a hint of Bali, with heady smells of frangipani, roses, lemons, rosemary and lavender throughout the network of winding garden paths and lawned green spaces.”

The retirement village is in a well-positioned suburb close to the city, airport, freeway and Fiona Stanley Hospital.

With three major arterial roads and the Kwinana Freeway in striking distance, as well as a public bus route passing directly by, there is a lot to the village’s appeal.

Amenities in the village include a new clubhouse which contains a library and art and craft room.

A wonderfully appointed residents’ lounge and sports bar can be found upstairs overlooking the heated undercover 20m swimming pool and well-equipped gym area.

An onsite hairdresser, as well as visiting doctors and podiatrists, make the village the perfect place to call home.

Seniors Own Real Estate Principal Mike Graebner said the global pandemic highlighted the importance of retirement villages.

“With COVID-19 affecting everyone in the community in the last year, it has become apparent to many people that retirement villages provide a really good option amongst their peer group,” he said.

“Rather than continuing to live in the traditional family home which may be too big, too expensive and need too much maintenance, over-55s can avoid being socially isolated and enjoy a new lifestyle at Meath Care Como.”
