Own your retirement with Bloom Living
Why should you give up home ownership just because you're retiring? That's the ethos behind Bloom Living's freehold apartments currently under-construction in Manurewa East.
Designed for the 60+, Bloom offers a freehold alternative to traditional retirement villages. Apartments are owned outright, and capital gains sit with the owner when it comes time to sell.
Bloom's central location ensures you're a stone's throw from Manurewa Town Centre's fabulous amenities.
Enjoy the financial benefits and convenience of a Bloom Living Apartment.
Show Homes: Wed, Thurs, Sat 10am-12pm, 20 Alfriston Road. Due for completion

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
