We’re for the activists, the artists, the pioneers.

We’re for the generation that challenged the status quo, the ones that stood up for change and those who invented a new way of living.

We’re passionate about creating unique communities in towns and city centres across Australia. We’re building villages for our parents, our aunts & uncles and our mentors. We don’t see you as an ‘older person’ or a ‘retiree’. Instead, we’ve built these villages to capture the essence of your younger self, your wilder side. Keeping you independent for longer!

Like you, we’re challenging the conventional and redefining the experience of ageing. Combining beautiful architecture and interiors with non-invasive technology and ground-breaking wellness programmes, we’re creating active and enriching lifestyles in vibrant locations.

ThirdAge is the future of retirement

Our mission is to keep you independent for longer, and our homes, communities and onsite facilities have been designed with this front of mind. Maintaining a strong social network and keeping active has never been easier!

ThirdAge is not aged care living. We are independent living providers, delivering the best quality housing and a new standard of living for the older generation.

What’s On Offer

Resort-style communities

We partner with the best hospitality providers to get you delicious meals and drinks – delivered to your door.

Wellness programs

Our game-changing wellness programs offer a variety of ways to keep active – from yoga and mediation to boxing and everything in between.

Active lifestyles

We support and empower you to get out and about and live a healthy, active lifestyle – keeping your schedule as full as you want it to be.

Social connections

We organise events and activities that help you foster strong friendships with the people in your community.

Our Projects

We are passionate about revolutionising the aged care industry, so we create unique, inspiring communities that encourage healthy lifestyles – in both towns and cities across Australia. Our resorts are designed to capture the essence of our clients’ best selves, aiming to keep them independent longer.

In doing so, we’re redefining the experience of aging. We’re building the kind of homes we would want for our own parents, aunts and uncles, and mentors.
