The Goulburn South Lifestyle Village is just two hours from Sydney and less than one hour from Canberra, making our village an ideal place to live.

Sell the family home and purchase a brand new two bedroom home at an affordable price and leave you with money left over to purchase a new 4WD and caravan.

What are the costs of a two bedroom home?

You will need to discuss the purchase price and when your home would be delivered with the site manager.

A 10% deposit would be required for us to commence production of your new home and the balance payable on delivery.

If you are looking for a larger home Goulburn South Lifestyle Village offers a range of homes. For further information please discuss with the site manager.

What are the site fees?

New residents entering the Goulburn South Lifestyle Village will be required to sign a Residential Tenancies Agreement which is designed to protect both the resident and the park manager. As a resident of the Goulburn South Lifestyle Village, you will be required to pay site fees which will cover the following items:

1. Exclusive use of your home site. In other words, your block and its garden.
2. Professional management of the Village.
3. Upkeep and maintenance of all community facilities including BBQ’s.
4. Council rates.
5. Garbage collection.

Site fees do go up over time and price rises are covered by the Residential Tenancies Act.

What’s not covered?

1. Maintenance of your home and garden. Of course, we can assist in arranging this if required.
2. Insurance of your home. Again, we can assist if required.
3. Utilities such as water, gas and electricity.
4. Telephone, Foxtel and Internet.

If you’re a pensioner, you may be entitled to receive an extra payment from Centrelink under the ‘rent assistance scheme’. You may be able to receive as much as $52.00 per week assistance. The actual amount that you receive is determined by Centrelink. We advise that you contact Centrelink to obtain further information. For example, if your site fees were $105.00, and you received the Rent Assistance subsidy of $ 52.00, then your outgoings for site fees would be $53.00 per week.
