Open day and display homes very impressive and high quality. Worth consideration for a move to over 55s community when ready. Staff well informed and friendly.

We needed to move closer to our family but did not want to be an ongoing burden to them. Having lived in another over 55s village which was to far away we knew what to expect and what was important to us. Having visited other villages in the area and watching GreenRidge grow from a block of land we knew that this was for us, When the displays and plan was introduced, we made an instant decision on the home we wanted, GreenRidge is in the middle of Maitland, Singleton, Cessnock giving plenty of choices for shopping and outings and also the eateries and winery’s, Huntlee is going to be a great shopping precinct in the near future and so close. The staff team is friendly and helpful and listen to any issues with a smile . The front garden is well looked after, Our backyard is  ours to develop and enjoy. The facilities meet our needs the village residents are a happy lot.  We love living here at Green Ridge ticks all our boxes.

My husband and I attended an open day at Green Ridge July 2023 out of curiosity with no intention of moving into an over 55s/retirement village as we had planned the renovation of a small cottage for our next move. We were impressed with the villas on display, the helpful staff and the general layout of the village resulting in us reconsidering our options. A nearby shopping centre offering dental, medical, pharmacy, optician, a vet as well as a supermarket would cater for most of our day-to-day needs, which was a plus. Before making the final decision to move, nothing seemed too much trouble for the Green Ridge staff who were always available to answer our many questions. There was no sales pressure but encouragement to take our time and to have the appropriate legal and financial advice. The transition from living in our old home with all the maintenance for a large garden and pool to a new three bedroom two bathroom villa (all one level) with plenty of cupboard and storage space was quite a relief! We now only have the responsibility for our own small back garden, ensuring our dog has her walks every day with all other outside maintenance is taken care of by the Green Ridge team. There is no need to get into the car to go to the gym, have a swim or have a haircut. Living here is like being on a permanent holiday! A wonderful sense of community exists within the village with the regular coffee mornings, Friday drinks and organised frequent outings and activities. The move to Green Ridge was the right decision for us, we stayed in our known local area, and I never thought we’d be so happy.

My initial thoughts on selling our family home and moving into Green Ridge Estate was that I was not old enough to go into an over 55 Village. I was not ready for this change but Geoff was, maybe in about five years time as we approached a more elderly status. But with that in mind we went and had a look and taking a tour with Bec. We were very surprised and impressed with the size of the Villas and the future layout of the Village Area. Needless to say on our second visit we signed up, never looking back. We love living there. Since moving into Green Ridge we have enjoyed the social aspect of the many activities and making new friends. It has been a non hassle event for us as we settled in straight away. The Green Ridge staff are always there to help and encourage each resident of the Village.

I first saw the advertisement on a billboard in the Pokolbin and as I hadn't seen anywhere else that I liked in the area, I thought I would investigate !! Christine was very helpful in showing me the display villa and the plans of the various villas, It did not take me long to decide that this was where I wanted and needed to be !! and so I reserved a villa I then had to sell my farm in Gresford before I could move in and Madaleine and her team were very helpful and patient in my situation! I wanted to live in roughly the same area to where my friends lived and at the same time to be nearer to Sydney and Melbourne where my 3 sons and their families were, access from the nearbyM15 gave me this. My villa is compact giving everything one needs, and pleasant with fabulous storage and so well built. the Green Ridge facilities are out standing in every respect !! The Green Ridge Team are amazing and so patient with us "oldies" !

When I first contacted Green Ridge I was reticent about moving into what I saw as a “Retirement Village”. Bec was very understanding and absolutely lovely – she took me on a tour of the available houses (not “Townhouses” or “Villas” – real houses!) and helped me to see the benefits of a place like Green Ridge. I no longer felt like I was retiring, more that I was moving to a place that suits my needs. I chose Green Ridge because it is not far from Sydney (where my children live) but far enough away that I feel like I live in regional Australia, so best of both worlds. This is a delightful estate with fantastic on-site amenities and many close-by experiences to enjoy. Let’s be honest though – it’s also a tad luxurious! My new home has NO STAIRS and a flat driveway – if you could see my old house you would understand the appeal! I love that I can pretty much do what I want inside the house, so make it truly feel like my home, knowing that Madaliene and her team are making sure that whatever I do is safe and that the work is completed by qualified tradies. The facilities are awesome. It’s hard to believe that I can access these as part of the (low) monthly fee. Can’t wait to play pool on the full-size table and watch movies in a Gold-Class quality theatre! The team is unbelievable. Bec is always happy to give advice, Hazel is incredibly active in building the community and is ALWAYS ready to answer questions or give advice, and Madaleine has an obvious love of her work and is SO responsive to any issues I might have. I couldn’t ask for a better team. Where we are is so easy to access – 30 minutes off the M1, no Google maps required. Having Coles, doctor, dentist, pharmacy and vet so close was unexpected and really makes a difference to my (and my cats’) health and eating habits. I know Huntlee is going to grow but at Green Ridge I will always have these facilities closely accessible. One thing that has struck me since I moved here a month ago – EVERYONE is smiling. People in stores are happy to see me. Tradies turn up and are genuinely interested in helping me. The staff at the Huntlee Tavern aren’t annoyed at making a cocktail – they are HAPPY to create food and drink that I will enjoy. I don’t intend to every leave here – it is so different to what I have had for 60+ years in Sydney.

My journey to living at Green Ridge Hunter Valley has been remarkably easy. After my retirement from full time work, I decided that I needed more than apartment living as I needed more room for my pastimes and hobbies. I looked at houses and villas but ultimately, I did not want the work involved in maintaining the property. After first staying with friends in Green Ridge I was immediately impressed with the spacious design of the villas, the amenities and the grounds. I made the decision to move here. The sales team showed me through the villas and I found one that was perfect for me and the team reserved my choice whilst I sold my property. The team made this all very easy and with no pressure. After moving in I am totally enjoying all that Green Ridge has to offer. I regularly use the pool, spa, gym and cinema. There is a very active social side to the village too, with games nights, pool comps, trips etc. Being close to the wineries is also a benefit with a number of eateries and restaurants at your fingertips as well as an ever-growing shopping centre a stones throw away. All this and easy road access to major centres and airport has re-affirmed my decision. I haven’t looked back.

My husband & I inspected many over 55 Villages in our local area but none were suitable for our needs. We decided to look out of our area & Greenridge Hunter Valley was a new village we were eager to inspect. When we arrived for our first inspection we were greeted with much warmth & friendliness. Our family were a bit concerned about the fact we had decided to sell our family home of 43 years & move to an over 55’s village. On inspection our family were very happy that we had made the decision to make Greenridge Hunter Valley our new home. We love everything about our new home, it is well laid out, airy & bright. The spacious covered alfresco area is perfect for BBQ’s & family gatherings. All the facilities are amazing & there are activities every day. The Pavillon is large, very modern & a lovely place to catch up for coffee & many other activities with other residents. The team at Greenridge are extremely helpful, friendly & always available to speak to. The village is very close to the local shopping centre, wineries & the Hunter expressway. The residents at Greenridge are very friendly & everyone enjoys participating in activities. We were quite concerned about leaving our family home but we have settled in very well & have certainly made the right decision.
