Welcome to Selwyn Village & Hansen Close

A feature of the Point Chevalier community for over 70 years, Selwyn Village provides high-quality independent living accommodation and residential care for more than 600 residents, and specialised dementia programmes at its welcoming and homely ‘Lavender Cottage’ day centre. The depth and breadth of social, cultural, spiritual and educational events that take place across the village throughout the year, bringing together residents and staff alike, create a tangible sense of belonging and connection for all.

Our Hansen Close village in Roseberry Avenue, Birkenhead, is a ‘boutique’ retirement community comprising 12 independent living villas and the separate Selwyn House shared living residence on Auckland’s North Shore. The village is close to Birkenhead town centre, yet shares the tranquil surroundings of a mature residential environment. Residents of Hansen Close also enjoy full access to the lifestyle amenities of Selwyn Village and the active social calendar of events and activities.

Selwyn Village: A thriving community supporting ageing well in safe and inclusive environments

Offering a wide range of independent living options and residential care across 26 acres of landscaped grounds, our iconic Selwyn Village with its Chapel of Christ the King at its heart is a thriving community on the banks of the Waitematā Harbour. A distinctive quality of the village is the mutual respect and collaborative outlook that exist between residents, village staff and the wider Selwyn management team which are the basis of its vibrant, community-focussed and supportive atmosphere.

A key aspect of our commitment to excellence in resident services is ensuring that our physical environments match our high standards of care and support. Ongoing investment in the provision of enhanced facilities across our care homes, independent living apartments and communal areas further enrich the positive experience of living in the village.

With our exceptional residential care underpinned by clinical excellence – as demonstrated by our Ministry of Health certification audits – and our strong and ongoing focus on Health and Safety for everyone who lives, works or spends time at the village, residents and families can be assured of our quality practices and procedures and our unwavering commitment to providing superior care and service at all times.

The range of engagement in life activities and events that take place throughout the year is further strengthened by the many social responsibility and volunteering initiatives led by independent residents, adding to the wonderful sense of belonging, connection and support that exists within our lively village.
