About Hampshire Villages

Hampshire Villages is an Australian-owned family company that creates welcoming land lease communities for over-50s.

The operator says it has been guiding Australians through retirement living decisions for more than 20 years.

Hampshire Villages positions its communities around care, respect, connection, independence and a clear financial model designed to give residents confidence.

Hampshire should be described as an over-50s land lease and lifestyle community operator, not as a residential aged care provider.

Living Options at Hampshire Villages

Hampshire Villages mainly offers land lease communities for people aged over 50.

In a land lease community, residents generally own the home and lease the land or site it sits on, rather than buying the underlying land.

What Does It Cost to Live in a Hampshire Community?

Villages.com.au listings show a wide range of asking prices across Hampshire communities, including homes marked as available, under contract, negotiable or contact agent.

What It Means

What to Check

Home purchase price

Resale process, capital gains and contract terms

Independent legal and financial advice is recommended before committing to a land lease home or site agreement.

Hampshire Villages communities are designed for over-50s who want independence, community connection and a lower-maintenance lifestyle.

Villages.com.au listings mention features such as on-site managers, resident committees, resident front gate or lobby monitors, CCTV security, village buses, vegetable gardens, community TV, storage for boats or caravans, cafes, bars, hairdressers, beauty salons and walking access to shops or transport.

  • Over-50s community environment

  • Land lease homes in managed lifestyle communities

  • Coastal, regional and outer-metro locations

  • Community facilities and resident committees in selected villages

  • Storage, gardens, buses or security features in selected communities
