Resting in an enviable location, apartment 117 of the James McAuley Building at Mercy Village Wembley will offer space for your family and friends to stay, and the chance to enjoy the lifestyle you desire for your golden years.

On the top floor in a corner position, the apartment offers views spanning from Subiaco to the Perth CBD, as well as the Darling Scarp to Lake Monger.

Seniors Own Real Estate Sales Agent Caryl Sutrisno said once you entered the building you were welcomed by the quiet elegance of the main foyer, as well as the recently refurbished lobbies on each floor, with just as many delights resting within the apartment itself.

“The front door of the apartment opens into an entrance hall,” she said. “The open-plan living areas take advantage of the views and the north-facing aspect, and are separated from the bedrooms and bathrooms.

Your own retreat – the main bedroom suite – is separate from the rest of the apartment and boasts a double walk-through robe, as well as a modern ensuite.

Looking outside of the refined abode, Ms Sutrisno said the community at Mercy Village Wembley encouraged an inclusive, proactive and sociable lifestyle, with there being the opportunity to enjoy a private lifestyle or a more active one.

“The residents’ community centre flows over two floors with a lift, and includes a library/reading room, a games/activity room, alfresco seating, a gym, and consulting rooms on ground floor,” she said.

“Upstairs is an open-plan multi-purpose social room with bi-fold glass doors opening to a north-facing balcony and a spacious terrace with barbecue facilities.

“Inside is a well-equipped kitchen for functions, a social room which can be used for various activities, a projector/screen for movies, a TV, a piano and a corner bar.”

According to Ms Sutrisno, there is a focus on wellness at the village, with a visiting general practitioner, a podiatrist and a reflexologist, as well as yoga, tai chi and exercise group classes also available.

Outside of these internal areas, there are multiple features on the grounds of the village that will provide you with peace of mind and the opportunity to enjoy tranquility.

“The walkways throughout the village are ramped for ease of access and it is a short stroll to the community centre and manager’s office,” Ms Sutrisno said. “Nearby on the site is a heritage trail, comprising the refurbished girls’ school, stables, an olive grove, expansive lawn areas and established gardens.”

In the basement of the complex, you will find a tandem car bay to securely park two cars, along with a lockable storage room.

Whether are heading out with or without your vehicle, there is an array of locations for you to explore.

“Wembley is an established inner-metropolitan suburb with leafy tree-lined streets and good access to the city, public transport and the freeway,” Seniors Own Real Estate Managing Director Mike Graebner said.

“The Leederville, Subiaco and Floreat retail and entertainment precincts are nearby and, of course, Lake Monger is the jewel in the crown.

“Cambridge Street has a range of medical services and St John of God Subiaco Hospital is close by, along with and many cafes and restaurants.”
