Affinity Village, Stockland's first retirement village development in Western Australia, has been awarded the top accolade for Seniors Living at the prestigious UDIA Awards for Excellence in WA.


Stockland's Affinity Village has set a new standard in retirement living since its completion in March 2012.


In an industry first achievement, the village clubhouse, located in the heart of the community, has recently been awarded a 5 Star Green Star certified rating from the Green Building Council of Australia which represents "Australian Excellence" in environmentally sustainable design.


In many ways the hub of the village, the clubhouse features an in-house hairdressing and beauty salon, library with computer facilities, indoor heated pool, gym, craft room, billiards room, café, bar, medical consulting rooms and dedicated media room. In addition, 24 hour emergency assistance is available to residents.


Located in Baldivis, just 35 minutes south of Perth's CBD, the village is part of the Settlers Hills community and is now home to 83 residents, with the remaining four stages of the development set for completion over the next three years.


Affinity Village enables residents to enjoy an independent lifestyle with the reassurance of being close to a host of amenities, including Stockland's Baldivis Shopping Centre, which includes national supermarket Coles as well as ANZ, Westpac and over 21 additional speciality stores. Local residents also have the safety and security of living within a community of their peers whilst remaining connected to the vibrant Settlers Hills neighbourhood.


National Manager of Development Stockland Retirement Living, Kelly Miller, says the development and its inclusions are based on the best design and construction inclusions, gleaned from years of experience in the type of facilities and services that residents have come to expect from living in a Stockland community.


"Affinity Village at Settlers Hills offers a truly premium retirement experience and we genuinely believe it has set a new benchmark for retirement living in WA since we officially launched it early last year," she says.


"We know today's retirees are looking for attractive, well-designed living options which give them the choice and freedom to make the most of their retirement, and we have developed the village very carefully to respond to their needs."


When complete, Affinity Village will consist of 250 Independent Living Units set amidst more than nine hectares of landscaped grounds.


The development offers a selection of quality, open plan and architecturally-designed living options to suit a range of lifestyles and budgets. Prospective residents can choose from modern two bedroom homes or larger three bedroom villas, with plenty of car parking options.


Affinity Village is located at 38 Norwood Avenue, Baldivis. Villa prices range from $305K to $469K, with an average price of $388K.
