Why retirement looks better at Tudor Village: 10 reasons residents are loving the good life in Lilydale

As spring breathes new life into the property market and buyer interest surges, there’s no better time to consider your next chapter — and for many, that means embracing a lifestyle of comfort, community, and peace of mind.

Tucked away in the leafy suburb of Lilydale, Tudor Village is more than just a retirement community — it’s a vibrant village where over 350 residents enjoy independent living in beautifully maintained homes, surrounded by landscaped gardens, welcoming neighbours, and top-tier amenities.

Although Tudor Village has been established for over 30 years, its offerings are anything but dated. In fact, the stunning new community centre — opened in 2017 — is a shining example of modern design meeting traditional values.

Thinking about retirement living? Here’s 10 good reasons why Tudor Village continues to attract retirees looking to enjoy their freedom in style.

1. Uniquely Designed Homes with Classic Character

Every home in Tudor Village has its own architectural charm, with many showcasing elegant Tudor-style façades. Choose from spacious two- or three-bedroom villas, most with internal-access garages — and many with a separate study for added flexibility.

2. Quality Interiors for Easy Living

Inside, you’ll find thoughtfully finished interiors, complete with premium appliances, stone benchtops, and quality fittings — homes that feel luxurious without losing their sense of comfort.

3. No More Mowing the Lawn

Forget the lawnmower and enjoy manicured gardens without the maintenance. Streetscapes and front yards are looked after for you, so weekends are for relaxing, not weeding.

4. Security and Peace of Mind

A 24-hour personal and emergency alarm system ensures you always feel secure, with onsite management available during the weekdays to provide extra reassurance.

5. A World-Class Community Centre

The community hub is nothing short of impressive. From the indoor heated pool and gym to a private cinema, library, craft and billiards rooms, and fully equipped function spaces — there’s always something to enjoy or someone to meet for a coffee.

6. Exceptional Outdoor Facilities

Enjoy a game on the competition-sized bowling green, grow your own veggies in the community garden, or tinker away in the residents’ workshop. Walking paths and green spaces make it easy to stay active and connected to nature.

7. Getting Around is Easy

Tudor Village offers a complimentary community bus to local shops and services in Lilydale, along with organised trips to the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges — perfect for a wine tasting or a day in the hills.

8. A Social Life on Your Terms

From book clubs and craft groups to monthly events and outings, the social calendar is packed — but flexible. Join in when you want, relax when you don’t.

9. Family-Owned with a Family Feel

Being a family-owned and operated village, there’s a warmth and familiarity that sets Tudor Village apart. Here, neighbours become friends, and everyone is treated with kindness and respect.

10. Strata-Titled Homes Mean More Control

The homes at Tudor Village are strata-titled or loan licence. That means you can sell your

home on the open market, set your own price, and benefit from capital growth. (Note: standard village fees apply.)
