Freedom to Explore
A lifelong adventurer, Sonja spent years searching for the perfect secure home—somewhere she could lock up and leave while she travels in her campervan, yet always have a safe and welcoming place to return to. Avonpark offered just that. With the added reassurance of planning for the future, Sonja discovered that retirement living is far from dull! A thriving social calendar means there’s always something to do, and the friendships she has formed make Avonpark truly feel like home.
"I always thought people that retired were boring because they don’t work anymore or have anything to do—but boy, that is not true!"
A Surprising Discovery
Initially searching for houses that could be modified for her husband’s wheelchair, Marcelle stumbled upon Avonpark and realised it already had everything they needed—plus a welcoming community and even the ability to bring the dogs! The security, companionship, and accessible facilities made it the perfect choice for their next chapter.
"We weren’t looking for retirement villages at all… we were looking at houses."
For both Sonja and Marcelle, Avonpark has ticked every box. It’s a place where they can continue their independent lifestyles while having peace of mind, knowing support is there if needed.
