A fresh approach to over-50s living, where lifestyle, community and financial freedom come together.
More and more Australians over 50 are choosing to embrace a lifestyle that offers freedom, flexibility, and security — and Land Lease Communities like The Residences by Chirpy are leading the way.
By unlocking the equity in their family home, many are stepping into a new chapter: moving into beautifully designed, luxurious homes in safe, resort-style communities — without the entry or exit fees of traditional retirement villages.
Let’s explore what makes land lease living so special, and why it’s changing the game for over-50s across Australia.
What exactly is a Land Lease Community?
It’s beautifully simple: you own your home, and lease the land it sits on. Your right to stay on the land is protected by state legislation, giving you both peace of mind and flexibility.
This model is becoming increasingly popular thanks to its financial advantages, especially for those looking to “rightsize” while still living life to the fullest. And when you choose The Residences by Chirpy, you’re also joining a vibrant, supportive community designed around connection, wellbeing and fun.
You own the Home, not the Land — and that’s a Win!
At The Residences by Chirpy, you’ll own a beautiful, architecturally designed home packed with luxurious inclusions — all at a fraction of the price of traditional home-and-land purchases.
And because you're not buying the land:
No stamp duty — which can save you thousands
No entry or exit fees
No hidden charges that come with some retirement village contracts
Plus, your home is yours . That means all capital gains stay with you, not with an operator.
Modest Weekly Site Fees — Made Even More Affordable.
Beautiful Homes
Built with you in mind.
Your weekly site fee covers council rates, community maintenance, and resort facilities — all maintained for you. These fees are simple, transparent, and reviewed annually in line with inflation.
Pensioners and DVA card holders? You may also be eligible for government rental assistance, making this lifestyle even more accessible.
Homes at The Residences by Chirpy are crafted to exceed today’s energy standards — with solar panels, smart designs and sustainable features that dramatically lower utility bills.
