Retirement rentals

Unique to the Birchgrove offer is its inclusive rental model which covers electricity, water, heating, broadband & WIFI, buildings insurance, buildings maintenance (e.g. plumbing) line rental and telephone calls, security, general maintenance, rubbish collection, 24hr emergency aid, window cleaning and weekly housekeeping.

And that’s not all! The inclusive rent also provides access to the Moveasy service from the Senior Move Partnership, providing personalised support to help you plan and manage your move from your very own Senior Move Manager. You will also have access to a financial planner to assist you on how best to fund your move to Birchgrove.

A one-off joining fee is also payable. The joining fee is payable per apartment irrespective of number of tenants or size of apartment.

The joining fee covers the cost of the Moveasy package and, together with the inclusive rent, contributes to any repairs and redecoration required as a result of fair wear and tear on leaving the apartment and the costs of major repairs, building maintenance and future major capital works (roofs, etc). This does not include the cost of remedying any structural alterations made by residents.

NB: The inclusive rent is a ‘fixed’ charge and will increase each year in line with the change in the Retail Price Index.

Opportunities for friendship

Our aim at Birchgrove is to create a social environment that is broad and inclusive, accessible for all, but is unpressured. We never forget that we’re here to help our residents to get as much, or as little, from each day as they wish – and we’re always here to listen and ready to try new things.

Our weekly events and activities calendar offer opportunities to socialise and relax with neighbours or try out new hobbies and pursuits.

Our retirement communities are designed to be just that, communities where like-minded people can meet, connect and enjoy life together.
