Summary Profile
About Berwick House
A member of Berwick Retirement Communities
Berwick House, the first Berwick Retirement Community, set a new standard in Victoria when it opened in 1989. Nestled in the desirable Gordon Head neighbourhood, it has been extensively updated and offers comfort, security and our usual standard of affordable luxury. Just steps away from a mall, cinema and other conveniences, you’ll find everything you need for an independent and active lifestyle. Contact us today for a personal visit.
Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Berwick House is a beautiful mid-rise building, offering a vibrant community, including lively outings and shared holiday celebrations, just a few examples of activities you can join in here. Nearby attractions are part and parcel of life here, with outings to places as varied as Swan Lake, Victoria Butterfly Gardens, Butchart Gardens, as well as local pubs and shops. These joyful activities are what make life in this community enjoyable.
This is upscale senior living that lets you leave behind housework, yard work … any kind of work. Suites are spacious, looking out over Shelbourne Street or the building’s quiet inner courtyard and gardens. There’s a full continuum of care available here, including assisted living up to long-term care, making it an ideal place for couples with varying care needs. Chris and Gordon Denford, the visionaries behind this community, set out to create communities they would be proud to live in themselves. Here, you’ll likely have them visit and connect with you. That personal sense of accountability is a hallmark of life at Berwick House.
