Moving somewhere new is always daunting.
But moving into a Retirement Complex doesn’t have to be. Think of all the new people you get to meet.
Meet some of our different residents, what makes them unique and how to fit in when you’re the “new kid”.
Retirement planning can be an exciting time. Australians are starting to think much earlier about the way they want to spend their retirement years. You’ll find young couples in their late 20s and 30s often talking at a BBQ or restaurant about how they want to spend their twilight years. We’ve put together some examples of the ways our Alchera Living communities can work for some different types of retirement personalities. At The Reserve, Over 55’s Living offers so much variety, you’ll feel at home in no time.
MEET- THE EXPLORER 
The Explorers love to see new towns, beautiful lookouts and walk trails. In reality, they probably prefer to spend time outdoors than indoors and take every opportunity to get outside. They enjoy discovering abandoned homesteads and always keep a metal detector nearby for a sneaky prospect!
An Explorer needs a secure home base that they can lock and leave on their many adventures throughout Western Australia. The well designed apartments of Alchera Living’s The Reserve provide a high standard of homely comfort alongside low maintenance décor, fixtures and fittings.
Are you an Explorer? Do you plan to see as much of the state as you can? From the age of 55, The Reserve Apartments can help you achieve the lifestyle you’ve been planning. Consider downsizing to one of the four apartment size options and free up your time and some capital to do that trip you’ve always talked about.
MEET- THE SOCIALITES 
They LOVE hosting a get-together and will invite you over as often as possible. Whether it is to celebrate a birthday or simply a day ending in Y, the Socialites will have the fancy crockery waiting for you, delicious snacks included.
Socialites love to live in communities with other people around. They thrive off activity, meeting new people and making connections. Ever heard the phrase “A stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet”? Well, this philosophy suits the socialites down to a tee. They easily make new friends and grow their network of acquaintances. They love to be busy and have busy schedules. Alchera Living communities are perfect for Socialites because there are plenty of opportunities to get out and about, meet new people and engage in a new activity.
If you are a socialite looking for somewhere to host your future dinner parties, The Reserve would be a great place for you to consider for your next move. With a variety of apartment sizes, newly refurbished Social Centre, private indoor heated pool, fully equipped gym, local amenities right on your doorstep, you’ll never have a dull moment.
MEET- THE PROFFESSOR
The Professors are the type of people who gather knowledge, books and will stop at nothing to find the answer to your question, regardless of how obscure the question is. The name of that town you were trying to remember last month? They’ll own 3 books about it by the time you visit next.
Professors love to hunt down new museums and bookstores as well as find unique blogs online.
A professor needs spacious well designed living so that they can see all their books at all times. Not only space for books, but a cosy reading nook or research desk wouldn’t go amiss either. The well designed apartments of The Reserve provide a high standard of homely comfort alongside low maintenance décor, fixtures and fittings.
Are you a Professor? Do you know all the staff at your local bookstore by name?
