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. Oostvallei's beautiful tree rich gardens with its water streamlets and the added peace of mind brought about by the knowledge that anywhere within the village is entirely safe for walks are among the factors that enhance the graceful environment. 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

The Village is set in beautiful, secure surroundings featuring dams with extensive bird life, tranquil walks, spacious lawns and a swimming pool. It offers a total of 119 two-bedroom cottages, 40 one-bedroom and 64 two-bedroom apartments, each with a lock-up garage no more than 30 metres from the cottage or apartment to which it is assigned. These units are available to purchase on a life rights basis to persons aged 65 years and over. On-site frail care is available at the Ron Smith Care Centre.
