Lendlease has begun building the first of three over 55s apartment buildings, together with the centrepiece - a $5 million clubhouse – at Kingfisher Grove retirement village.
Kingfisher Grove is part of Lendlease’s master planned community Jordan Springs, which is being built on the former Australian Defence Industries site at Dunheved.
Only 20 off-the-plan apartments remain available in the first building due to strong demand.
When finished, the three apartment buildings will offer 139 units with one, two and three bedrooms with secure basement parking and storage.
The 1,350sqm clubhouse, the village’s centrepiece, will include a heated indoor pool, cinema, gym, bar, library, craft room, dining area and indoor bowls along with an outdoor terrace and BBQ area.
The village will be home to nearly 300 residents once completed in 2025.
Lendlease was joined by current, future and prospective residents for an official sod turn and smoking ceremony led by Uncle Colin, Darug Elder from the Muru Mittagar.
Kingfisher Grove residents will have exclusive access to the resort-style facilities and the social, security and low maintenance benefits of living in an over-55s community.
The village is well-connected to local amenities, public transport and local medical services, and offers a scenic backdrop of Secret Garden Lake and easy access to the 900 hectares of Wianamatta Regional Park.
“Our focus for Lendlease Retirement Living is to provide sustainable living solutions for Australia’s fastest-growing demographic that enable choice, connection and a place to live those golden years to their fullest," said Lendlease Managing Director for Retirement Living, Nathan Cockerill..
“The new apartment buildings will expand on the already close-knit community, and we know residents are thrilled to be getting a beautiful new clubhouse with all its facilities nearby as a place to socialise, relax and enjoy living well.”
Jordan Springs will have 2,500 dwelling sites and 17 hectares of parks and open space throughout the community.
