Alexandrina Cove Australia’s most high-tech lifestyle village

Not only has Alexandrina Cove recently become the first village for over 55s in Australia to connect to Telstra’s futuristic Fibre to the Home Network, Velocity, it’s also located in a world-class marina where every day feels like a holiday.

Surrounded by waterways and with stunning beaches, restaurants, wineries and cafes just minutes away, this $50 million stylish retirement resort at the Marina Hindmarsh Island has set a new standard in luxury living while meeting a growing demand from baby boomers for high-tech living.

“Alexandrina Cove is the way of the future. Not only is it the ultimate lifestyle address for the over 55s, but it also delivers communication solutions that are cutting edge and unparalleled in any other Australian lifestyle village including high-speed internet, digital free-to-air television and up to four fixed line telephone services,” Alexandrina Cove’s Richard Joy says.

“No where else on the south coast will you find a lifestyle village with the quality finishes and attention to detail that makes Alexandrina Cove the ultimate in luxury living. Go sailing, fishing or bird watching, play a round of golf or a game of tennis on a tennis court, work out in the gym, tinker in the Hobby Room or enjoy the company of good friends in your stylish entertaining area under the main roof.

“House values on Hindmarsh Island have soared 234% over the past ten years - more than Victor Harbor and Goolwa - proving that Alexandrina Cove represents a solid, long-term investment in an area poised for continued expansion.”

With facilities on offer ranging from the grand room to a gym, library, consulting room, private function room and tennis court with adjacent barbecue entertaining area encompassing a 3 hold putting green and petanque/bocce pistes. Alexandrina Cove will cater for those who enjoy the best that life has to offer.

Seventeen of the 116 villas have been completed and include granite kitchen benchtops, 9ft ceilings, ducted air conditioning and vacuuming and European appliances as well as the choice between timber and porcelain flooring. Garden and yard space is generous while rooms are spacious, light and bright.

Quality South Australian builders Rossdale Homes and Oakford Homes have constructed the luxury villas which range in size from 180 sq m to 240 sq m. The community will be fully gated with automatic gates at the secure entrance.
