What has been created is more than a building, but what will become an entire precinct that centres on ageing in place for residents, starting with independent retirement living.

Every consideration has been given to providing the best outcomes for residents particularly as they expect to be calling this home for the remainder of their lives. Therefore, the precinct offers a continuum of care where residents in The Grace can move into the forthcoming aged care and assisted living building if required.

This precinct takes that burden off people and their families by offering an ease of experience and extremely low change in environment.

The building’s design focuses on the creation of a community while maximising natural light and views over Albert Park Lake and the city. The Grace offers residents an exceptional degree of design and amenities including an artist’s studio, wellness facilities and theatre.

The project is exemplar in showing how a community can be established through its amenity, design and connectivity; the sector’s growth towards vertical living has been organic and there are many benefits of moving towards a smaller footprint. The Grace addresses a need for more community-focused retirement precincts in close proximity to the city, and with a highly sought-after location comes the need for high-quality design.
