About Summerset Kelvin Grove

Summerset Kelvin Grove offers a peaceful rural outlook across rolling countryside and views of the Tararua and Ruahine Ranges, while remaining close to Kelvin Grove shops and just 5km from Palmerston North's city centre.

Once complete, the village will offer thoughtfully designed two- and three-bedroom villas and one- and two-bedroom cottages. For added peace of mind, our care apartments and suites in the care centre will offer rest home and hospital-level care should your needs change in the future. (Care is subject to certification, availability and eligibility criteria).

Plus, residents will have access to a variety of indoor and outdoor resort-style facilities designed to help you stay active, social and enjoy more of the life you love.
