New village display homes showcase latest retirement living trends
05 June 2015

Buyers looking to downsize and enjoy the safety and community of a retirement village can experience the latest interior design trends at Lendlease's new display homes, now in villages across Queensland.

Many of the 15 Lendlease owned or managed villages in Townsville, Bundaberg, Mackay, Sunshine Coast, Brisbane and the Gold Coast have opened up newly-refurbished homes to the public, making it easy for prospective buyers to see the size and quality of the homes, and the latest decorating trends.

Regional Manager of Lendlease's Retirement Living business in Queensland, Greg Little said the new display homes reflect the extensive refurbishments now common at most of the villages.

"We understand our new residents are looking for a well-designed space, along with a great fit-out to suit their lifestyle, hobbies and other needs."

"Experienced Queensland designers have helped us to maximise the space, creating a light, airy and modern feel, neutral enough to display individual treasures, and fill with memories and new experiences too," he said.

Lendlease's new display homes are a collaboration with Sunshine Coast based property styling and interior design company Blink Living, who have a team of qualified interior designers with over 30 years' experience.

Blink Living Interior Designer, Dianne Conley said the recent boom in retirement developments has seen interior design take on another dimension.

"Our approach is all about creating an inviting, inspirational yet practical space incorporating the latest trends in homewares and accessories to make the decision an exciting next step for any new resident moving into a village."

Units available in Queensland villages range from $110,000 for a one-bedroom, $150,000 for a two-bedroom and $265,000 for a three-bedroom with a car space.
