While picking asters 'neath the Eastern fence, my gaze upon the Southern mountain rests;
The mountain views are good by day or night, the birds come flying homeward to their nests.
This represents the retirement lifestyle that we would like to create for our residents.
You’re more than welcomed to join the big family of Southern Alps Retirement Living and enjoy a happy and fulfilled retired life. Your smile is for what we are striving.
