Whitby Lakes has one of the best locations in New Zealand – built on the edge of a lake with all its connecting walkways, and right next to the Whitby Shopping Centre – where you’ll find a New World supermarket, medical centre, pharmacy, library, cafes and so much more. And right across the road you’ll find the Whitby Bowling Club. The perfect retirement address.
Whitby Lakes’ architecturally designed apartments are located in the heart of our village – either right above the Lifestyle Centre, or a very short walk away. We have one, two and three-bedroom apartments – many with wonderful views – either of the lake or to the Whitby hills beyond. They are built to make the most of the Wellington weather – with conservatories that are designed to be opened to the elements on nice days, and closed on windy days – providing practical additional living space.
Whitby Lakes has a range of one, two and three-bedroom villas in different sizes – all less than a five minute walk to the Lifestyle Centre. What they all have in common is they’re positioned to make the most of the sun – featuring open plan kitchen/dining/living areas.
Drop into the café for a morning coffee, or catch up with your neighbours over drinks at happy hour. While away a rainy afternoon in the village lounge or library, or if it’s sunny, take a stroll around the lake or the gardens. Hit the gym, swim in the pool or relax in the spa. Whatever you feel like doing, it’s all here – along with a resident-led activities programme.
Whitby has a wonderful sense of community – centred around the Whitby lakes, interconnecting walkways and the hub of amenities located next to those lakes including the Bowling Club, Tennis Club, Library and Shopping Centre. Whitby Lakes Retirement Village is located in the very heart of Whitby – right next to the shopping centre and the lake.
Whitby Lakes offers many of the services you would expect at much larger retirement villages. Although most residents live independently, assistance is available if required. Whether you require short or long-term support, services can be tailor-made to suit your needs. The Medical Centre and pharmacy are right next door – which makes additional external support very easy to access.
We’d love to talk to you and explain what’s available. Please call our Sales Manager, or drop in for a chat, we’re open most days (except public holidays) from 10am-3pm. There will always be a friendly face you can talk to who will show you around.
