Located in the heart of Brighton and at the beach-end of cosmopolitan Church St, The Granton Brighton is one of Melbourne’s finest retirement villages.
Developed by the respected and prestigious Buxton Group, the Granton places a significant focus on creating the best living experience for senior residents with the finest quality services. Catered specifically to provide a boutique apartment living experience to the 55+ demographic, The Granton was designed not only to complement but enhance the ever-changing and evolving lifestyle of our seniors.
Comprises of a 4-storey development, The Granton offers one, two and three-bedroom apartments with private terraces and a single level basement for parking. Each apartment is fitted with a 24/7 emergency call system tailored to ensure residents’ safety. Additionally, with The Granton’s tailored assistant program and dedicated staff team, residents can always be at ease knowing they are supported at all times. Designed following a contemporary architectural style and an open layout, the apartment is filled with natural light during the day. At night, Unios’ Kobe Track Light elegantly illuminates the kitchen island. For senior residents, it is crucial that colours remain similar both day and night. With a CRI 92+, the Kobe provides effective task lighting for the kitchen as it renders colour close to nature, increasing residents’ ability to recognise objects.
Creating a five-star living environment, The Granton also includes a gym, wellness centre, cinema, consulting and treatment rooms and storage spaces within the development. In addition, residents have access to the finest quality services in the communal area, consisting of a central courtyard, a secured foyer, and an on-site bistro.
For the communal area, the Titanium Downlights are utilised throughout. With a deep recessed design and excellent optics, the Titanium provides low glare illumination with a UGR of <16 for optimal comfort. The Granton’s lighting scheme prioritises visual support, meaning residents can forego the need to squint, which can cause improper depth perception. Quality, well-planned lighting reduces the risks of falls. In the central courtyard, the Emerald Spike Light is perfect for the planter boxes, showcasing the beautiful landscape of this stunning retirement estate.
As a welcome addition to Melbourne’s premium retirement communities, The Granton is set to deliver its promise of a premium living experience for our seniors.
