In the past the general perception of retirement was to work until reaching the age of 65, this meant going from a very active lifestyle to one of what to do during the days ahead. For some people this can be very hard to adjust too, not having to get up and go to work everyday. With retirement villages like Maygrove you are able to have a semi retirement lifestyle. 1     At Maygrove Retirement Village you are able to come and live here from the age of 55 2     You can still continue to work until the age you wish to retire with not having to worry         about maintenance of your home, lawns to cut, while still having the “Independent Living Style” 3     This will give you a lot more freedom to enable a semi retirement lifestyle, being able to do more        of the the things you enjoy, but not had the time to do so 4     Being able to have holidays with peace of mind by living in a secure environment 5     Using the village facilities and gradually making new friends for when you do actually retire 6     This should make the transition into full retirement a lot easier, especially for those whose          families are not close or overseas.
