Built in the early 1980s as a church community outreach project, Iona Close is home to just nine brick-and-tile cottages nestled in pleasant grounds on Woodside Avenue. This is retirement living at human scale—close to the harbour bridge and local amenities, yet private and low-maintenance. Residents enjoy the freedom to personalise their homes while benefiting from a supportive community and professional management of rates, insurance, and grounds.
Each cottage is a brick veneer home with a single attached garage, refurbished before occupation. Open-plan living, modern kitchen, tiled bathroom, and optional gardens.
Life at Iona Close is independent and private.
Residents value their autonomy while enjoying the safety and companionship of like-minded neighbours. The village is managed by St Aidan's Presbyterian Property Trust, which handles building insurance, rates, grounds maintenance, exterior security lighting, and exterior maintenance—keeping life simple.
