About Us
Victoria Point Lodge was purpose built as affordable aged care accommodation for our mature aged seniors. We are non denominational and welcome everyone. It is located in the beautiful bayside suburb of Victoria Point in the heart of Redland City, East of Brisbane CBD. It is well positioned opposite a local shopping centre that includes doctors, chemist, supermarket, post office, hairdresser and more. Victoria Point’s major Shopping Centre is only 5 minutes away.
Operated by experienced and caring staff, the gardening, grounds maintenance and meal preparation is taken care of for you, giving you more time to enjoy your retirement. Resident on site managers will ensure you settle in and become a valued member of our friendly caring community.
Victoria Point Lodge is fully accredited under the Residential Services Accreditation of Queensland providing supported accommodation for our mature aged.
Thompsons Beach and the surrounding parkland is only a short stroll away. A bus stop is situated right at the front door. Local sporting clubs operate a courtesy bus service. Seniors are well accommodated for with various community clubs in the area.
We are a small complex of just 12 independent retirement living units offering maximum independence and privacy in a relaxed and secure complex.
The rent structure is very simple with no complicated accommodation bonds payable. The rent is based on 78% of the Single Aged Pension plus Government Rent Assistance that is paid by Centrelink. There is no income or asset test or ACAT assessment and all residents pay the same amount of rent. Please see our Costs page for up to date rent amounts.
There are no buy-in or exit fees, only a $500 bond that covers unit preparation on your departure and the balance is refunded to you.
Pensioners and veterans retain their full home care and package entitlements. You are not tied to a long lease, so if the accommodation is not for you, you have the flexibility to leave with a minimum of two (2) weeks notice and without the worry of selling a unit.
An optional medical alert monitoring service is available to residents at their own expense. Electricity is covered in your rent, the telephone can be connected at the resident’s expense.
The local shopping centre conveniently located directly opposite Victoria Point Lodge provides shopping and services with over 25 specialty shops including Foodworks, newsagent, post office, bakery, chemist, doctors, Bendigo Bank, hair dresser, restaurant, coffee shop, fast food and more. The major shopping centre including K-Mart is located just 5 mins away at Victoria Point Central Shopping Centre.
Thompson's Beach at Thompson Street Victoria Point is only a few minutes walk and is perhaps the most popular swimming beach on the mainland of the Redlands, it’s great for swimming and is a safe and ideal spot to visit for a few hours of bayside serenity.
