Lynmore Rise is a gated retirement village of 64 single-level villas at 40 Owhatiura Drive in Lynmore, Rotorua. The website describes a "lock and leave" lifestyle, with a secure community, a 24-hour emergency call service, and Village Managers and a maintenance team who help with jobs in the home or garden. The villas are built by Classic Builders and have double glazed windows and a heat pump. Each has a sunny front patio and a shaded back patio. Viewing is by appointment at the showhome.
Customers describe the villas as beautiful and self-contained, with a lake nearby, parks opposite for walks and two shopping centres close by. One says it is a very restful place to retire. Another says they moved in and found great people. A third says they wish they could afford to live there. A resident's testimonial on the website says the home has plenty of space and keeps warm well with its double-glazed windows. Our pick in Lynmore for a quiet, secure retirement with parks and shops close by.
