Mackay’s First Over 50s Lifestyle Resort Has Commenced Construction!
Construction is now underway at Solana Northern Beaches - Mackay. Civil construction company Pentacon, with offices in Brisbane and Mackay, has been appointed to undertake the civil works for the site.
Solana Northern Beaches - Mackay is the fourth Solana Lifestyle Resort in Stockwell’s thriving portfolio of over 50s communities along the Queensland coast.
Over 50s communities are one of Australia's newest and fastest growing retirement and downsizing choices where houses are owned by the residents, who pay a weekly site rental fee that covers the use and maintenance of gated entries, private roads, recreational facilities, garden and lawn maintenance to common areas and the front of homes, council rates, water rates and water supply. The weekly site rental fee can also be offset by government rental assistance to those who receive the Aged Pension.
These communities are providing better value downsizing options, offering ownership of high-quality housing as well as the advantages of no stamp duty, no land tax, no entry & exit fees, no make good fees and retention of capital gains on sale.
Stockwell Managing Director and creator of Solana Lifestyle Resorts Mark Stockwell said, “Delivering a resort in Mackay’s Northern Beaches was any easy choice. We have extensive knowledge and expertise in helping owner occupiers downsize so that they can get on and enjoy life. We have been delivering for the community in Mackay for over 20 years through our shopping centres Northern Beaches Central and Showroom Precinct and Hibiscus at Bucasia, so we know the area well.
“We are delighted to now have Pentacon onboard who like us, are a Queensland company with extensive experience in Mackay. With civil works now commenced, we are likely to see homes starting to be built in the second half of the year and hopefully residents moving in not too long after that.
“This will soon be followed by the delivery of resort’s centrepiece, The Livewell Centre. The Livewell Centre acts as an extension to residents’ homes where they can enjoy a range of facilities and amenities from indoor and outdoor pools, lawn bowls rink, tennis and pickleball court, cinema, lounge, craft room and library. This is complemented by an onsite workshop, community garden and the very popular pet park, as four-legged friends are very welcome at Solana Resorts.”
Solana Northern Beaches - Mackay sales office and display home are now open at 121 Rosewood Drive, Rural View. Two- and three-bedroom floorplans are available within the resort which are priced from $499,000. Click here for more information.
