5 reasons you'll love your lifestyle at Rivervue

One of the biggest motivators to move to a retirement village is the range of lifestyle enhancements and benefits you’ll experience.

From active and social opportunities, to your ability to tailor your daily routine to suit your unique needs and preferences, we’ve listed the top 5 lifestyle benefits of living in a retirement village like Rivervue.

1. Get active and social with ease

Many retirement villages are bursting with opportunities to get active and social with likeminded peers. From placing lifestyle and wellness facilities on your doorstep, to organising fun-filled community events and activities, you’ll never feel stuck for things to do or people to see. The best part about village life, is you have the freedom and autonomy to choose when to get involved and when to take it easy.

2. Live a well-connected and convenient lifestyle

When it comes to living a life of convenience, location is everything! That’s why many retirement villages are positioned in well-connected locations, close to transport options, shopping destinations and essential services.

Our residents experience effortless connectivity, thanks to Rivervue’s prime location. Perfectly situated on the picturesque Maribyrnong River, our residents enjoy the ease of having trams and buses on their doorstep, as well as living just 3km from Highpoint Shopping Centre, 5km from Puckle Street in Moonee Ponds and 9km from the CBD.

Residents also benefit from the convenience of regular health professional visits such as a physiotherapist and podiatrist. Plus, we have a hairdressing salon on site.

3. Enjoy facilities to call your own

Many retirement villages offer a host of resort-style amenities that help to enhance your everyday lifestyle. From swimming pools and spas, to libraries and fully-equipped gyms, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Plus, you can jump on the village bus for regular trips to local shopping centres and a range of exciting destinations.

Rivervue residents benefit from a range of cutting-edge amenities on their doorstep. At the heart of them all is the community centre. Whether it’s a family event, a casual barbeque with friends or a relaxing afternoon in the lounge, the community centre offers a wide variety of social or peaceful opportunities. Lifestyle-enhancing activities, such as aqua exercise classes, swimming laps in the heated indoor pool or working out in the well-equipped indoor fitness centre are also readily available for all residents. The library is the ideal place to read the paper or relax with a novel. Enjoy a drink in the sports bar with your neighbours or watch your favourite sporting event on Foxtel.

4. Take part in community activities

You’ll often find that retirement villages have booming social and activities calendars, giving residents an abundance of opportunities to get outdoors and enjoy spending time with their neighbours and friends.

Rivervue offers a huge range of activities including gym groups, aqua aerobics, indoor bowls, billiards, table tennis, card games, board games, afternoon teas, movie nights, trivia nights, themed dinners and lunches, group dog walking, communal jigsaws, craft, dancing and Happy Hour – just to name a few!

5. Tailor your daily routine to your unique preferences

One of the best aspects of life in a retirement village is your ability to tailor your daily routine to meet your unique preferences. For some that could mean taking it easy; for others it could mean trying new things and being at the heart of the social life.

At Rivervue, the range of facilities and activities on offer makes it possible for residents to do as they please. Whether you’re introverted, extroverted, or somewhere in between, you can choose how much you want to take part in.

Plus, if spending time with your grandchildren is an important part of your weekly routine, you’ll be well catered to at Rivervue. Grandchildren are always welcome to explore the beautiful gardens and enjoy the stunning facilities, provided they are accompanied by a resident at all times.
