Downsize without compromising on space, comfort or the lifestyle you’ve worked hard to enjoy.

Positioned along the eastern avenue of Signature Gardens Retirement Resort, Villa 1147 offers the spacious Camellia 1.5 design, complete with two bedrooms, a separate study, two bathrooms and an additional multi-purpose room adjoining the garage.

It’s a home designed to give you options, whether you want room for visiting family, a dedicated hobby space or simply more room to spread out and enjoy everyday life.

Inside, the living and dining areas connect with the kitchen, where a breakfast station adds a practical touch. Plantation shutters, air conditioning and natural gas add to the comfort of the home, while the main bedroom features its own ensuite. A second bedroom, separate study and main bathroom complete the layout.

The front and rear patio areas provide places to relax, enjoy your morning coffee or spend time with family and friends. Extended paving and an awning add to the outdoor space, while the remote-controlled garage has an epoxy-coated floor and an adjoining multi-purpose room suited to hobbies, a workshop or extra storage.
