Oostvallei Retirement Village is situated in the East of Pretoria. The 120 residential units nestle among old leafy trees. The development of the village commenced in 1990 and the first occupants moved in a number of years ago.

This is indeed a little paradise. These are the lasting impressions after a visit to the village situated on the corner of Coley and Serene Streets in Garsfontein. The developers did not skimp on the development costs for the creation of a retirement village where senior citizens can enjoy complete peace of mind. From the planning stages the owners' point of view and philosophy was that this was not merely the creation of "a roof over the head" that they planned to provide, but rather lifestyle
