Embracing a Low-Maintenance Lifestyle in Retirement

What is Low-Maintenance Living?

Low-maintenance living describes a community that takes care of your home’s maintenance, perfect for those looking to retire and relish in the time gained.

Churchill Living have been building low-maintenance retirement homes throughout our spectacular retirement communities for years – we believe retirees should have the time to do the things they love most, which is exactly what our homes are designed to do. Read below some of the benefits of a low-maintenance retirement.

Low-Maintenance Lifestyle

The communal maintenance and upkeep of the development and gardens are all taken care of for you at Churchill Living homes. All those irritating, time-consuming jobs like mowing the lawn are now someone else’s problem. Instead of pulling out weeds every weekend, spend your Saturdays relaxing with loved ones and enjoy everything your new retirement village has to offer. Our communities will clean up common areas, conduct general repairs and other essential services to keep maintenance at a minimum.

Sense of Community

A defining feature of our retirement villages is the strong sense of community and tight-knit atmosphere. We advocate an independent lifestyle; your own apartment gives you privacy for a well-earned rest. The communal Owners’ Lounge opens up a whole new social life with all the extra leisure time you’ll have in your low-maintenance home. With like-minded neighbours, you’re guaranteed a strong sense of belonging and a friendly, welcoming environment throughout all our villages – something that can’t be compared.

Money Saving Experts

Every retiree worries they won’t have enough money to enjoy retirement, with your maintenance problems taken care of, you won’t need to spend money on repairs or garden equipment.

Lock Up and Leave

There is a huge advantage of a ‘lock up and leave’ lifestyle enabling you to simply lock your door and leave your retirement apartment in safe hands for weekends away to visit family or jet off on a luxury vacation. Low-maintenance living gives you the freedom to travel without worrying about who’s going to water the plants while you’re gone.  

Functional Living Spaces

Lower maintenance and optimised amenities doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice space, quality or value, this really shows in our developments. Churchill Living homes are designed with buyers in mind plus the space they require.

Organising your Home

When your to-do list isn’t filled with a million and one maintenance tasks, you’ll suddenly find yourself with much more time to customise your home to your personal tastes. Whether that means organising, decorating or personalising your house with artsy projects, making your house feel like home.

Spend Time with Loved Ones

Spending time with loved ones can provide a higher quality of life, as you spend less time worrying about the pressures of home maintenance. With retirement developments across the country, choose a location that suits you best – close to family and friends, we also offer a guest suite allowing your family and friends to stay overnight any time you like.

Time for You

Low-maintenance living is intended to give homeowners the peace of mind, time and happiness to be able to enjoy the things you love doing most. From spending time outdoors, going out to your favourite restaurants, picking up your favourite hobbies or travelling across the country (or out of the country). Live your retirement to the fullest extent by choosing a Churchill retirement village.
