Shaftesbury Court Retirement Village offers cosy and affordable rental apartments. The Village is set within a solid brick residence that feels welcoming, homely and genuinely social - the kind of place where neighbours know your name.
Located in the vibrant suburb of Burwood in Sydney's inner-west, we're just a stroll away from Burwood's restaurants, shops and local amenities, whilst also being tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets. Over time, we’ve built strong connections within the local community, with nearby businesses and locals familiar with our residents and Village Manager.
Note: No apartments are currently available.
Shaftesbury Court is a friendly, community-focused village, where residents often look out for one another and organise informal social catch-ups and activities. We also enjoy coming together for celebrations and going on regular outings, creating opportunities for moments of connection.
Our Village Manager is available to assist with day-to-day queries and maintenance needs, helping ensure the Village runs smoothly and that you feel supported.
You're sure to feel at home.
The Village offers a total of 37 studio and one-bedroom apartments, designed for comfortable and independent retirement living.
Each apartment is equipped with a ceiling fan, stovetop and oven plus built-in cupboards and storage. All apartments feature a private balcony, with top-floor residences enjoying city and suburban views.
As part of The Salvation Army Aged Care, you can access Salvos Home Care NSW services if additional support is needed. These services can be arranged in consultation with the Village Manager and Salvos Home Care team, making it easier to organise help when required.
Welcome to a community that can support you for life, with care that adapts to you as your needs change.
"At Shaftesbury, we are a friendly, welcoming and inclusive community. Residents have the freedom to live as they want in a safe environment, and it's much easier for them because we take care of all the day-to-day and maintenance. We're also very lucky to have a surrounding local community that helps residents if needed."
Shujuan (Sue) Li is our Village Manager and has been working at The Salvation Army Aged Care for 23 years and has a wealth of expertise across aged care.
