YOUR PLACE TO CALL HOME

Leigh Place has the atmosphere of a friendly residential street and a strong sense of community. Built as a group of six beautifully maintained houses, each of our high-quality private apartments is designed with full amenities, plus communal living for all residents.

To that end, you and your families can be reassured that our staff members have been carefully chosen not just for their professional skills in the aged-care sector, but because they use those skills with the utmost sensitivity, respect and concern for everyone in their care.
