Familiar face promoting Enliven’s Kandahar Retirement Village

Nell Tawera MacDonald is the agent for Enliven’s new Kandahar Retirement Village.


Nell Tawera MacDonald may be familiar to many people in Wairarapa.
She has spent the past 20 years selling real estate on behalf of many clients in the area and has loved it.

“I like people and one of the reasons I initially went into real estate was because I got to meet a lot of people!”

When the opportunity arose to be the Sales Agent for Enliven’s new Kandahar Village retirement villas – currently under construction – Nell decided to put off her own retirement for a little longer.

“I’m ecstatic to be working with a team of special people who have the welfare and wellbeing of our older generation at heart.”

Kandahar Village is being constructed adjacent to Kandahar Home, located in Lansdowne in Masterton.

Up to 52 two-bedroom retirement villas will be built at the site. The development will also include a community centre which will be available for use by village residents and the wider Wairarapa community.

The first 12 villas are expected to be completed in September and October this year.

Nell says the location in Lansdowne will be a popular choice for retirees.
“Lansdowne is buzzing. It is close to town, shops, the hospital, and now, with this development that’s happening in the neighbourhood, this is yet another positive attraction to the area.

Residents in the new villas will have access to some of the great services provided by Enliven, including meals, cleaning, health recovery care and a discreet continence product delivery service.Nell says there is a lot of interest in the project and she’s keen to have a chat over coffee with anyone who wants to hear more.
