Elphin Lodge Retirement Village

What makes Elphin Lodge special?

Set on 13-hectares of land, in beautiful, secure surroundings, Elphin Lodge features dams with extensive bird life, tranquil walks, spacious lawns and a swimming pool.

The Jukskei River is situated on its eastern boundary. A footbridge links Elphin Lodge to Tarentaal Village and Inyoni Creek, which are situated on the opposite side of the riverbank.

The acronym ELPHIN stands for Every Living Person has Intrinsic Needs. As the first life right village developed by Rand Aid, Elphin Lodge has set the benchmark in offering comprehensive services in a warm and friendly environment where residents come first.

Elphin Lodge is situated on Modderfontein Road – between Edenvale Hospital and the National Health and Laboratory Services – in Edenvale, Gauteng. It is easily accessible from the N3 Modderfontein turnoff and is close to a variety of shopping centres, sport and golf clubs.

Elphin Lodge offers two-bedroom cottages and one- and two-bedroom apartments that are available to purchase on a life right basis, to Elders aged 65 and over.

Each cottage consists of two bedrooms, kitchen, full bathroom with bath or shower, separate toilet, lounge/dining room, patio and enclosed yard. The two-bedroom apartments have similar facilities, excluding the enclosed yard. The one-bedroom apartments have a full bathroom and a generously-sized lounge/dining room and kitchen. All the apartments have either a covered patio or balcony.

All cottages and apartments are north facing, with either a south or a north entry. The kitchens have ample cupboard space, and provision has been made for a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge / freezer. All cottages and apartments are either carpeted or tiled and have telephone sockets and a connection to a DSTV satellite dish. Each cottage and apartment has a lock-up garage no more than 30 metres away from it. Garage doors are automated.
