Redefining retirement

Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village

The meaning of retirement is changing. It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love.

It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love. Rather than hanging up their hats, many of today’s retirees are redefining this phase by staying active through part-time jobs, volunteering, or even launching new careers.

Living in a retirement village doesn’t necessarily mean you’re done with work either; rather, it offers the opportunity to explore different activities, pursue long-held passions, and discover new interests. In fact, many people find the lifestyle gives them more freedom to stay engaged and active through work they enjoy.

Have posted on both TradeMe and Facebook, so thought I would try my luck here too.

Rent: $275pw + $8pw Broadband. Water/power halved monthly.
1x room with en-suite available in apartment complex w/ access to gym and pool.
I’m looking for a female flatmate of similar age to live with me. (20s/30s). The lease is until January 2025 with the potential to extend this after in another unit.
Note: This is not a party house. Must be clean and tidy and reliable with rent 😊 ideally some rental history and references would be good. Place is furnished entirely (couch, king size bed, wardrobe etc) by the owner and I have provided my own kitchen furnishings (air fryer, slow cooker, cutlery, plates etc) which can be used. Water & power is charged monthly (going halves). Cleaning supplies halved, toilet paper separate due to en-suites. Bond is $1100 with one weeks’ rent ($275). If you have a vehicle, it’ll have to be parked in the visitors’ parks to the back/side of the complex or outside of the complex due to there only being a limited number of parks directly outside the apartments. Laundry/dryers on site.
About me: I am a 25 (almost 26) year old who works full time as a support worker and studies part-time in law. I like a pretty chilled & quiet environment, but love an occasional glass of wine at the end of the night. I love to cook and relax, also like to walk and gym when I can. Ideally, I’d love someone I can be friends with as opposed to just flatmates 😊 a safe and secure environment for everyone is paramount to me
Get in contact if you’re interested and we’ll go from there!

Price: $275
