Northcott Gardens"

"Northcott Gardens" is owned and operated by The Vasey Housing Association, N.S.W. with experience in the NSW retirement industry since 1962.

Set amidst award winning landscaped gardens in the leafy lower North Shore suburb of Lane Cove, "Northcott Gardens" consists of 57 self-contained one bedroom apartments.

The village was opened on the 7th March, 1969 by His Excellency Sir Roden Cutler VC, AK, KCMG, KCVO, CBE, Governor of NSW. It was named after Lieutenant General Sir John Northcott KCMG, KCVO, CB, an Australian Army General who served during WW11 and commanded the British Commonwealth Occupation Force in the occupation of Japan. He retired from the Army in 1946 to become the Governor of NSW and was Chairman of Vasey’s Board from 1/2/1962 to 20/6/1966.

The average size of apartments is 39sqm and all are secure, well appointed and feature a separate bedroom, kitchen, living/dining area and bathroom, while window screens, carpet, light fittings, a phone line, Digital TV antenna and monitored fire alarm (including smoke and heat detectors) are standard inclusions. Some apartments may also include a balcony.

Vasey apartments fully deserve their reputation for convenience, quality, comfort and affordability.

All our apartments are close to shops and transport, and are designed for single living, offering many of the advantages of home ownership - without the worries. Vasey apartments provide the autonomy of your own home with safety features and an environment where you can choose to take part in the community.

The Vasey Housing Association, N.S.W. is a not for profit organisation. It was founded by Jessie Mary Vasey, widow of one of Australia's most distinguished soldiers, Major General George Alan Vasey, CB, CBE, DSO, who was killed when his aircraft crashed in the mouth of the Barron River near Cairns.

Jessie was a pioneer in the fight to obtain justice for thousands of war widows. This led her to form the national War Widows Guild of Australia and, in 1959, The Vasey Housing Auxillary NSW.

Vasey's aim is to provide quality, affordable apartments and property management for single persons over the age of 55 who wish to enjoy an independent and dignified style of living.

A small team of dedicated staff and a Board of Directors willingly give their time and effort to ensure the high standards of the Association are maintained.
