If Christchurch is the garden city, then Diana Isaac is the garden village! Located off East Ellington Drive in Mairehau, you’ll pass Walter Park as you make your way to the village entrance, perfect for walking the dog or taking the grandkids for a play. A tranquil walk around the pretty townhouses will showcase beautifully landscaped gardens and pot plants full of colour.
You’ll find Oderings Garden Centre at the rear entrance of the village, as well as the new Christchurch Northern Corridor motorway providing easy access out of the city. As for convenience, the Palms Shopping Centre and Merivale Mall are both less than 10 minutes away.
Inside the village community and connection are woven into the lifestyle. It’s evident in the ever-popular weekly Happy Hour and the fine dining evenings that are regularly sold out. However most importantly, it’s evident in the genuine care of your fellow neighbours and the village team.
Immerse yourself in our wonderful Diana Isaac Village by viewing our virtual tour.
Stroll through the lovely gardens, explore our village amenities, and step into our beautiful townhouses, apartments or care rooms. You can navigate your way through each featured room or area of the village and really get a feel for the space. All without leaving your house.
The menu at top left shows different areas of the village for easy navigation.
MAKE A VISIT TO NURTURE A CONVERSATION
Gathering together during the holidays can lead us to notice changes in our loved ones and their needs, especially if there has been some time between visits. Starting a conversation about care isn’t always easy, but like many things, sometimes you just need to take the first step.
To help nurture those conversations, we invite you to see inside your local Ryman Care Centre where a tour will give you first-hand experience of our village community and how we are pioneering care. Our care options include the extra support of a serviced apartment, resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.
Date: 31 January | Time: 1pm-4pm |
Diana Isaac Village offers living choices to suit everyone, so residents can live the way they want and blaze their own trails. Our apartments and townhouses are light and spacious, with clean lines and a clever open plan design layout that provides an easy flow throughout.
If down the track you need more support, we offer assisted living in a serviced apartment and a full range of care options. That freedom and flexibility is empowering for residents and knowing care can be dialled up as needed means, quite simply, ‘no worries’. It's all part of what we like to call the Ryman Difference.
Our pioneering approach to retirement living includes resident-friendly terms designed to protect you and your family. Our base weekly fee is fixed for the entire time you occupy your apartment or townhouse*, and our deferred management fee is capped at 20 percent – one of the lowest in the retirement sector.
These are just some of the ways we’re pioneering a new way of living for a new retirement generation.
*Some conditions apply.
