    A village with heart

    “I’ve never had a moment’s doubt about my decision to move to Epsom Village.” Like Karen, so many of our residents are so happy with their new lifestyle that they don’t want to keep it to themselves. As a proud New Zealand family-owned village, we offer a level of care, warmth, and personal connection that big corporate operators simply can’t replicate. With only 90 residents, Epsom Village is intimate, charming, and distinctive — a place with real character and soul.

    Furry Friends

    At Real Living, the well-being of our residents—both physical and mental—is our top priority. Our pet policy requires Village Managers to grant individual approval for any new pets, ensuring a balanced and harmonious environment. However, they are always mindful of the joy and companionship that pets bring. That’s why, at Pakuranga Park, you’ll often see a variety of happy pets—cats, dogs, and even a few birds—enriching life in the village.
