10 reasons to retire at The Verge
1. Beautiful outlook
Enjoy an unprecedented lifestyle at The Verge at Burleigh G.C, overlooking the 10th tee of the Burleigh Golf Course and just minutes to the beach and all that the Gold Coast has to offer.
The Verge offers an elevated and private position, and each apartment’s floor-to-ceiling windows capture expansive views from every angle. Many apartments have stunning uninterrupted views of the golf course, all with direct access to the Burleigh Golf Course Club House.
2. Luxury apartments with age-friendly design
The Verge offers spacious and beautifully appointed 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, with generous balconies, floor to ceiling windows and open-plan living. Each residence is pet-friendly and filled with natural light and high-quality fittings every bit as impressive as the view. The free-flowing floorplan between the kitchen, dining and living areas makes entertaining a breeze.
Apartments have been thoughtfully designed for positive ageing, offering a low-maintenance lifestyle and age-friendly layouts to suit changing needs. This includes a range of features under the Liveable Housing Australia standard such as wider corridors and doorways, step-free shower recesses and reinforced bathroom walls allowing for the safe installation of grab rails if needed in the future.
3. A central and connected location

4. Social connection
Retirement is a time for friends, family and like-minded neighbours. Research shows that social connection matters, especially as we age. Not only does it delay health problems related to ageing, but it provides us with happiness, security, support and a sense of purpose.
That’s why The Verge has been designed to maximise social connection. Here, you’ll be part of welcoming and close-knit community and can get to know your neighbours over a drink on the terrace, or by taking part in one of the regularly organised social events. You can also join the Burleigh Golf Club or one of the many community clubs close by, such as the Miami or North Burleigh Surf Clubs. This is the place to be if you value being part of a social and connected community with like-minded neighbours.
5. Stay active and explore
The Verge Wellness Hub has everything you need to keep active, social, and independent. First-class facilities include the on-site age-specific gym, easy access to tailored exercise programs or group fitness classes and consultation rooms for health professionals such as doctors and physiotherapists.
In addition, you’ll enjoy first-class multi-purpose recreation facilities including a residents’ bar and café, rooftop terrace and BBQ area. While our shared amenities offer a great range of services and activities, the village bus is perfect if you want to explore further afield, as it will take regular trips to local retail and entertainment hubs. What’s more, the village is a 2-minute stroll to the Burleigh Golf Club and a short walk to Gold Coast Seniors Tennis Club and Pizzey Park Aquatic Centre.
6. Privacy
Even though it is central to everything, The Verge boasts a private and elevated aspect. It is tucked away in a quiet suburb, away from the main tourist areas, main roads and high traffic areas. With its enviable position next to the 10th fairway of the Burleigh Golf Course, you can rest assured that people can’t see into your apartment, and your views will never be built out.
7. Safety and security
Along with this privacy comes safety and security. The Verge has been specifically designed to enhance residents’ wellbeing by providing a safe, secure and friendly environment. Its vertical design and secure access gives you the freedom to lock up and leave without a worry. What’s more, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded neighbours and a community that looks out for each other.
8. Contract certainty
At RetireAustralia, we understand that retirees want financial clarity, certainty and confidence – particularly in a time of instability. That’s why The Verge sales contract offers a simplified and clear financial process.
We want our residents and their families to have certainty from the very beginning so we specify – upfront – what the costs are, and what they cover. From the day you move in, you will know the outgoing payment you will receive when you leave The Verge. The monthly service fees will be charged on a cost-recovery basis only and cannot be increased more than the Consumer Price Index without the approval of village residents.
9. Care when you need it
You can access a range of flexible, tailored care services, delivered in your own home by the trusted RetireAustralia team. Our Home Care service makes life a little easier and gives you peace of mind that, should your needs change, you can continue to stay safely in your own home for longer. Our care team can help with household chores, meal preparation, showering, dressing, and medication support, to name a few.
Whilst most home care services in Australia are delivered in daylight hours, we are in the unique position to be able to offer personal care and nursing services to residents in their apartments 24/7* at The Verge.
Our experienced team will work with you to understand your needs and preferences and design a tailored care plan which can be funded privately or, depending on the nature of the care and services to be provided, can be funded through an approved government-funded Home Care Package (HCP). We can even help you navigate HCP approval through My Aged Care, the government assistance platform.
Should your care requirements advance beyond that which can be safely provided for in your apartment, you will have peace of mind that you can stay in your community by transitioning to the Care Hub for a short stay or on an ongoing basis. The Care Hub is a genuine alternative to aged care, offering compassionate and person-centred care in a homelike environment.
10. Support
The Verge encourages positive ageing and has been specifically designed to allow residents to live independently for longer. As well as the support of a connected community, there are team members on hand if you need extra assistance. Rest assured that you will have support at your fingertips, with an on-site Village Manager, visiting allied health professionals, and in-home care services.
