WESTPROP Holdings Limited is transforming retirement planning in Zimbabwe with the launch of lifestyle retirement resort apartments at The Hills Luxury Golf Estate.
These specially designed homes blend assisted healthcare, fitness, leisure, clubhouses, and on-site shopping, offering retirees the comfort, convenience, and financial stability they deserve.
This unique development—the first of its kind locally—marks a shift from traditional retirement living. Instead of merely providing accommodation, The Hills creates a vibrant, supportive community focused on dignity, wellness, and modern living.
Unlike older options that lack essential nearby services, The Hills ensures residents have everything they need at their fingertips. Reflecting on the project, WestProp Holdings CEO Ken Sharpe said:
“Creating a retirement home gives the elderly an opportunity to meet like‑minded people in a safe environment where their health and wellbeing are the primary concern.”
With increased migration for work, traditional expectations that children or relatives will care for older family members are changing, leaving many seniors isolated and unsupported. The Hills Retirement Resort Apartments address this growing solitude, giving retirees access to world-class facilities and the chance to be part of an active, connected community. As Mr. Sharpe emphasized:
“This retirement model is the first of its kind in Zimbabwe. At The Hills, seniors can live in communities designed for their wellbeing, while their existing homes generate income. Retirement should be a season of freedom, not limitation.”
Through this innovative approach, WestProp Holdings is setting a new standard in Zimbabwe, offering sustainable, community‑focused living for the country’s retirees.
