“A stunning apartment, friendly community and peace of mind, made St Hedwig the perfect choice for me,” Valerie, a St Hedwig Resident, said.
Valerie has been a Blacktown resident for over 25 years, so when the Village opened in March 2024, Valerie couldn’t wait to become a resident.
“Moving to St Hedwig Village was the best choice I ever could have made. I drove past the village countless times over the years as a long-time local, so when it finally became my home, it felt exciting, like it was a new stage of my life,” she said.
“The accessibility here is fantastic, and because I’m on my own, the support available gives me great peace of mind.
“I’ve met so many friendly people since moving in and there’s always someone around to have a chat with, when you check your mailbox or take a stroll.
“I recently joined some of my neighbours on a community outing to Penrith. We went to the river, and enjoyed a lovely day together. There’s a wonderful sense of belonging at St Hedwig and many social activities including, the card group I’ve joined and our regular bingo games.”
For Valerie, village life is exciting and purposeful but it is her own sanctuary she enjoys the most.
“What I love most about St Hedwig is my beautiful new apartment, which feels bright and welcoming, as soon as you open the door. It’s so comfortable and spacious and has plenty of room to move around in,” she added.
“My living, kitchen, and dining areas flow out onto a courtyard, making it feel very homely and cozy. Plus, I was able to decorate it how I like, with pictures and paintings that mean a lot to me.
“Living in Blacktown for the past 25 years, it was important for me to stay in a familiar area where I have already had connections. Moving to St Hedwig allowed me to do just that.
“The village has existed for over 30 years with a rich history, deep roots and a strong sense of community. Coming here felt like I was part of something well-established, yet new and exciting. I feel happy and secure about my future and look forward to enjoying everything this wonderful place has to offer.”
