Terra Nova Retirement Village

Retirement is the start of the best years of your life; a chance to finally enjoy the fruits of your labour. How you choose to spend this time is up to you. Choosing where you spend it is a lot simpler: welcome to Terra Nova Retirement Village.

Your new neighbourhood
Terra Nova Retirement Village is the latest addition to the Terra Nova Private Town, situated close to the N17 and only minutes away from Secunda. Residents can enjoy all the amenities and luxuries of a vibrant town, nestled in the rolling hills of the countryside. The aim is to establish the first top-notch retirement estate in the Highveld and enable residents of the surrounding areas to retire locally, with no need to relocate to the city in order to enjoy retirement to the full.
With more than 500 residential units built and sold in Terra Nova by the same developers, you can rest assured that your investment is in good hands when buying at Terra Nova Retirement Village. Build quality is of the utmost importance, with only premium fittings and finishes fitted to all homes.
In order to mitigate the impact on the environment and create energy efficient and cost effective homes, eco-friendly materials and building techniques are used as far as possible. To this end, a reticulated gas network and gas storage banks have been constructed to service all properties in Terra Nova. All homes are fitted with a gas stove & oven, a gas geyser and a gas heater. This alternative to electricity is also more economical and ensures a lower utilities bill for the residents of Terra Nova. Mindful of the long-term national energy situation, diesel-powered backup generators have also been installed to guarantee electricity supply to all properties during loadshedding and outages. .
The various residential estates within the Terra Nova Private Town offer a secure living environment where residents can enjoy peace of mind and freedom of movement.
The 24-hour state-of-the-art security system available to all residents guarantees security and peace of mind. The security system consists of 24-hour CCTV monitoring with armed response, gated entrance with access control and electric fencing.
To further expand the footprint of Terra Nova Private Town, more conveniences and services are being developed. Construction work on the restaurant and hotel is in progress, while the planning for a convenience mall and filling station is nearing completion.

Terra Nova Retirement Village
The Retirement Village has been designed to ensure that all residents will enjoy a secure and fulfilling retirement. To this end, different facilities and levels of care will be available to residents. A fully functional Sub Acute Unit forms an integral part of the central area of the estate, while Assisted Living Units are directly adjacent to the Sub Acute section. Both the Sub Acute and Assisted Living Units will provide special care for rehabilitation and recuperation purposes, as well as long term support and care to the frail. These medical care services will be provided by professionally qualified and thoroughly vetted practitioners to guarantee excellence.
The communal administration block will be the core of the retirement estate providing all facilities and services required for a carefree retirement and will consist of:
* General administration offices
* Room for consultation by visiting doctors, therapists and other medical practitioners
* Dining room and the central kitchen
* Laundry area
* Gymnasium
* Lounge with a library
* Hair salon
* Community hall for functions and church activities

* Areas for practicing hobbies such as an area for gardening (e.g. vegetable gardens), as well as a workshop/shed where wood work and other crafts can be practiced.

Housing options
In order to cater for the different needs of residents, various options are available when choosing a home. The sectional title area of the retirement village will provide a choice of one or two bedroom attached units. Residents of these units will have the option of acquiring either a carport or a garage. Additional store room is also available and special provision can be made for safe and secure parking for caravans and trailers.

Various products are also available as full title stands, which include:
