Top notch retirement for Brookland couple

It’s great to see two of our favourite faces living each day to the full at Brookland Robertson.

Judith and Lyle Bird were among the first buyers to move into Stage 2, The Banksia, in November 2024, and have been embracing our community lifestyle ever since. 

Lyle said he was delighted with village life. 

“No more raking leaves off the lawn or fixing leaky taps for me,” he said. 

“I exercise twice a week with group classes and have even started tai chi. There are lots of friendly people to chat to and we enjoy music afternoons in the clubhouse every Thursday. 

“There are regular subsidised lunches, free morning teas, and barbecues once a month for a small contribution. It’s all fantastic.” 

The couple enjoyed coffee and lunches at the village 12 months before moving in, so they were able to meet people and familiarise themselves with everything in advance. 

Judith said: “Brookland is really top notch – we love it!”
