If you’re considering downsizing, put Pelican Shores Estate on your radar.
At this over 50s lifestyle village, you’ll discover a serene setting and a variety of housing options available.
Boasting a picturesque waterfront location in Leopold, just outside of Geelong, Pelican Shores offers its residents a secure living environment and low-maintenance homes. You can choose from a variety of house designs and floor plans including a new duplex which is due for completion early next year.
This new duplex presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to embrace their next stage of life.
Theresa Kamay purchased a similar duplex back in 2021 and couldn’t be happier with her decision.
“I moved from Burwood to Pelican Shores Estate 18 months ago, and I fell in love with this duplex,” she said.
“From a blank canvas I have added my own personal touches with colour feature walls, a gas log fire and my feature garden.
As I drove through the village I was welcomed by strangers with a wave and a welcome greeting. These people are no longer strangers but good friends and have welcomed me to join a very vibrant and active warm community.
“In addition, being close to Geelong and the amenities without the hassle of city traffic is a bonus.
Moreover, as a gated community I feel safe. I have never regretted a moment since moving to Pelican Shores Estate.”
These duplexes will offer a modern design and functional floor plan, each with one bedroom, a study, and open-plan living and dining. They are a great option for those seeking a smaller, more manageable home. They also present a unique opportunity to live close to a friend or family member whilst still maintaining your own space and independence.
If you’re concerned about finances or want to ensure you have sufficient funds left over to enjoy retirement, Pelican Shores offers a unique Shared Equity arrangement that enables you to pay 80 percent – 99.99% of the total purchase price in return for an identical percentage ownership. This means that these duplexes can be purchased from as little as $311,500 each.
Beyond the comforts of your new home, Pelican Shores offers a range of facilities and activities. From social groups and clubs in the community centre to the cinema, heated spa, and swimming pool, there is always something to do. You can get involved in village life as much or as little as you like. Additionally, the convenient location provides easy access to shops, services, and medical facilities.
Residents Norma and John couldn’t be happier with their decision to make Pelican Shores their home.
“Buying a home in Pelican Shores not only allowed us to free up extra cash but it is just such a beautiful place to live,” they said.
“Leaving for holidays is a breeze because there is nothing to worry about knowing your home is safe. We have stunning views and can walk our dogs in some of Victoria’s best
surrounding countryside. The staff are friendly and helpful, just a great place to call home.”
