Surrounded by the Sights and Sounds of Nature
Halcyon Parks CALOUNDRA
Discover your Halcyon Days In 2004 we chose the spectacular Sunshine Coast as the destination for our very first masterplanned lifestyle community, Halcyon Parks. It became the fastest selling residential community of its kind and earned the 2006 Queensland UDIA award for Affordable Housing. Now well established on a leafy 45-acre site, Halcyon Parks is surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature and is only a five minute drive from Caloundra’s famed beaches and vibrant CBD. This 171-home lifestyle community brings together quality architect-designed homes, gated security, comprehensive resort-style facilities and a strong community culture. Set amid 20 acres of open space, natural parklands and flora and fauna, forming an important part of the daily life here at Halcyon Parks. From a lakeside stroll past the resident kangaroos, swans and waterfowl, to your choice of relaxation or action at the Rec Club; the leisure options are almost endless. Home owners also have easy access to everyday convenience, with shops, medical facilities and the local bus stop just a short stroll away. This ideal lifestyle blend has attracted hundreds of happy home owners, who are making the most of their ‘Halcyon Days’. Halcyon remains committed to delivering outstanding locations, impressive facilities and, most importantly, a place where you can take the next step in your life journey. We invite you to look inside and discover why... Life begins at Halcyon.

Nothing like a retirement village Halcyon’s ground-breaking model for over 50s living has redefined the way people embrace life after work and kids. The legal framework for our communities is based on the Manufactured Homes (Residential Parks) Act 2003 and this legislation guarantees your financial and lifestyle certainties. All our communities are 100 per cent owner-occupied with each home owner owning their home outright. There is no stamp duty on the purchase of your home, and a single weekly fee covers all management and maintenance costs as well as your site rent, rates and water, providing certainty of the cost of living. If circumstances change and you decide to sell your home, there are no exit or deferred management fees. Upon settlement of sale, you receive the full capital gain. Halcyon’s transparent ownership model means no hidden fees or surprises; just freedom.
It’s the nature of the place There’s something about the nature of the place that makes Halcyon Parks so special. It’s about the people, the strong sense of community and the chance to live in a tranquil environment surrounded by native flora and fauna. Thanks to 20 acres of open space and natural parklands, the great outdoors is a constant companion and an integral part of the unique lifestyle here at Halcyon Parks. Follow the 800m walking trail around beautiful Lake Pynor and meet the ‘natives’, as kangaroos and wallabies graze, and ducks and waterfowl tend their young. No wonder it’s called Halcyon Parks.
Your own private clubhouse Home owners have exclusive access to the multimillion-dollar Recreation Club – the social hub of the community, where you can be as active or as relaxed as you wish. At Halcyon Parks, it’s all about a carefree lifestyle with more time for socialising, leisure and the pursuit of personal passions. Push yourself in the fully equipped gymnasium, feed your literary soul or ‘surf’ the Net in the library, take a spin on the dance floor or simply relax and soak up the lake views with friends on the Rec Club’s north-facing verandah. Whether it’s lawn bowls on the full-size synthetic bowling green, ‘pitch n putt’ on the golf green, croquet, a special interest group, immersing yourself in nature or perhaps a dip in the heated pool and spa, there’s no shortage of things to do. It’s up to you; take it on or take it easy.

Low maintenance, luxury living Designed for living and built for life, Halcyon Parks’ 171 architect-designed homes feature quality materials, fittings and finishes for a carefree and low maintenance lifestyle over the long term. Our unwavering commitment to delivering home owner satisfaction means our homes are comfortable to live in and easy on the hip pocket. Most benefit from private north-facing living areas, and capture cooling sea breezes. We use steel frames and Hebel walls, which are stronger, more resilient and gentler on the environment while providing passive heating and cooling to bring down your running costs. All homes are set amidst established landscaping that complements the broad streetscapes and open spaces that make Halcyon Parks so inviting.
Lock it, leave it, love it Gated security, CCTV cameras and the convenience of storing your caravan, motorhome or boat close to home in our 60-berth storage area, means there’s nothing stopping you now. This is what you’ve always dreamt of; the chance to lock and go with no worries. It’s the freedom to travel on a whim; safe in the knowledge that the community manager, resident caretaker and your like-minded neighbours are keeping an eye on things at home while you take on your next adventure.
We walk the streets with you Halcyon has built a strong reputation for creating and managing residential communities designed exclusively for over 50s. When you move in, we remain with you. Enthusiastic and helpful full-time community management plays a large role in the social fabric of the Halcyon lifestyle. Our managers work closely with home owners to establish interest groups, events and activities. Halcyon’s resident caretakers are dedicated to the maintenance and upkeep of the streets, communal spaces and recreational areas, freeing up our home owners to enjoy peace of mind in a relaxed and well-maintained environment. Our model for over 50s living provides the quality of life and financial security that delivers outstanding lifestyle opportunities for our home owners.
