About The Oaks Care Centre and Village

Experience Comfortable and Convenient Retirement Living at The Oaks
At The Oaks, we understand that retirement is a time to relax, enjoy life, and focus on what matters most. That’s why we offer a selection of beautiful villas that are designed with your comfort, convenience, and independence in mind. Whether you enjoy entertaining family and friends or simply want to enjoy quiet time in your own space, our villas are the perfect place to call home.

Spacious, Open-Plan Design for Easy Living
Our open-plan villas are carefully designed to provide a sense of freedom and comfort. The spacious layout allows you to create your ideal living space with ease, whether you prefer a cozy retreat or an area perfect for hosting visitors. With large windows that let in plenty of natural light, the airy feel of each villa ensures that you’ll always feel connected to the outdoors while still maintaining privacy and peace.

The open-plan design also enhances the flow of the living space, making it easier to entertain guests, move around, and enjoy daily activities with ease. Every villa is built to maximize space and minimize hassle, creating an environment that allows you to focus on enjoying life.

Year-Round Comfort with Modern Features
Your comfort is our top priority, which is why each villa is equipped with modern amenities to keep you comfortable all year round. Most of our villas come with double-glazing and a heat pump, ensuring the ideal temperature inside no matter the weather outside. Whether it’s the chill of winter or the heat of summer, you’ll stay cozy and relaxed without worrying about the changing seasons.

The heat pump is not only efficient but also easy to control, letting you set your ideal indoor temperature with just a touch. The double-glazing helps with insulation, reducing noise and keeping the temperature steady, so you can enjoy a peaceful environment inside your villa.

Practical and Convenient Amenities for Easy Living
In addition to the beautifully designed interiors, our villas offer practical amenities that make life even more enjoyable. Garages are included at no extra cost with most of our villas, providing you with a secure space to park your car or store your belongings. Having a garage also means added peace of mind for your vehicle, especially in Christchurch’s variable weather.

The villas are designed to be low-maintenance, allowing you to spend more time doing what you enjoy. From the exterior to the interior, our homes are built with easy upkeep in mind, meaning you won’t have to worry about regular maintenance tasks and can focus more on enjoying your surroundings.

Affordable and Stress-Free Retirement Living
At The Oaks, we believe that retirement should be a time of relaxation, without the financial stress. Our villas offer an affordable, hassle-free living solution that ensures you can enjoy your retirement without compromise. With no hidden costs, our pricing structure is clear and straightforward, allowing you to plan your finances with confidence.

The villas provide a secure, peaceful environment where you can live independently while still being part of a supportive community. Enjoy your own private space while having access to everything you need, from healthcare services to social activities and beautiful garden areas.

A Thriving Community and Convenient Location
Located in a prime location with access to local shops, public transport, and community amenities, The Oaks is the perfect place for those who want to stay connected to the outside world while enjoying the serenity of a private villa.

Our residents have access to a range of activities, and being part of the wider Oaks Care Centre and Village means you can engage in the community whenever you like. Whether you want to attend social gatherings, participate in hobby groups, or simply enjoy the beautifully landscaped gardens, there's always something happening.

Enjoy Your Retirement to the Fullest
Living in one of our villas means you’re not just buying a property – you’re investing in a lifestyle. You’ll have the freedom to live as independently as you like, while still having the peace of mind that support and care are available when you need them. It's the ideal balance of privacy, comfort, and convenience.

If you’re looking for a place where you can truly enjoy your retirement, The Oaks offers an unparalleled environment for relaxation, enjoyment, and personal growth. Our villas offer the ideal blend of independence, community, and convenience that make retirement living truly special.
