Get more out of life in an ECH Independent Retirement Village

A retirement village is a community of homes and amenities designed for people over the age of 65 and are active and able to live independently.

When you choose to move into an ECH retirement village, you live independently in your own private home, but without the hassle of home and garden maintenance or paying multiple bills like water or council rates.

With a wide range of locations and home styles ECH offers, you can stay close to family, but enjoy the new lifestyle, community and friendship an ECH Retirement Living Villages offers.

We’ve been helping older South Australians since 1964 and have been trusted by generations. With award-winning properties, you can be assured ECH meets the highest standards in retirement living.
