Queensland’s new style of curated over-50s living



For over-50s looking ahead to their next chapter, the appeal of a community that blends comfort, connection and everyday enjoyment has never been stronger. With more than 40 years of experience creating high-quality lifestyle resorts, Living Gems has become a trusted name for people seeking a fresh start without compromising on style, surroundings or affordability.

Across Queensland, Living Gems is expanding its offering with three exceptional lifestyle resorts: Moreton Bay, Rockhampton and Harris Crossing, Townsville. Each is designed with a carefully curated approach to community living and supported by incredible, multi-million-dollar facilities. While every location reflects its own regional character, all three share a commitment to thoughtful design, warm community spirit and everyday comfort.

What sets Living Gems apart is its ability to deliver a premium lifestyle that still feels personal and accessible. Homes are contemporary, low-maintenance and designed for ease, while resort-style amenities such as country clubs, cinemas, pools, wellness areas, creative studios and social hubs are created to be enjoyed daily.

These spaces encourage an active, connected lifestyle that suits people who may still be working, travelling, volunteering or simply embracing newfound freedom.

Affordability is thoughtfully balanced within the Living Gems philosophy. The focus is on delivering outstanding quality, beautifully designed homes and exceptional resort facilities while ensuring the lifestyle remains accessible to a wide range of over-50s.

Rather than compromising on standards, Living Gems offers a high level of craftsmanship and amenity that represents genuine value. The result is an enriching

lifestyle that feels premium, considered and well within reach for those looking to elevate the way they live.

Living Gems Moreton Bay, launching in the new year, will bring this curated approach to one of South East Queensland’s most desirable coastal regions. With

thoughtful neighbourhood planning, stylish homes and beautifully designed recreational spaces, it is set to become a standout option for over-50s seeking a

lifestyle that is both relaxed and refined.

In Central Queensland, Living Gems Rockhampton is now selling and is poised to become the region’s most impressive lifestyle resort. With more than 500 homes planned and over 23 million dollars in resort-quality amenities, it will offer locals a new standard of living while allowing them to stay connected to the region they know and love.

Further north, Living Gems Harris Crossing, Townsville embraces North Queensland’s natural beauty and tropical lifestyle. With contemporary homes, lush

landscaping and extensive wellness, sporting and social facilities, it provides an inviting blend of comfort, connection and everyday enjoyment.

Across all three locations, Living Gems brings together what matters most: thoughtfully designed homes, vibrant social environments, exceptional facilities and

the reassurance that comes from more than four decades of industry experience.

For over-50s seeking a lifestyle upgrade that blends comfort, quality and affordability, Living Gems is redefining what the next chapter of life can look like.
