The views and the value. The village sits at an elevated position in Mt Roskill, with sweeping outlooks across Auckland from the Manukau Harbour to the Sky Tower. Independent living in two-bedroom units, beautiful gardens, and a full range of facilities, all in a central Auckland location that keeps the city close without feeling like it. Views that feel special, value that feels right.

Friendly and active, with the option to be as quiet as you like. The village has a full social programme, bowls, bar nights, choir, exercise classes, arts and crafts, quizzes, movie nights, and organised outings, and the on-site facilities give residents somewhere to be most days. The atmosphere is unpretentious and well-established.

Yes. Hillsborough Heights is an independent living village with no on-site aged care. It suits those who are fully independent and want low-maintenance retirement living with good facilities and a social community around them. Metlifecare has other Auckland villages for those who need or anticipate needing care on-site.

It is one of the better-positioned retirement villages in the city for exactly that. Mt Roskill sits at the centre of the isthmus, with the bus stop at the main gates and State Highway 20 close by. The city centre, Onehunga, Three Kings, and most of Auckland's east and west are within easy reach. Residents who want to keep attending clubs, visiting family, or simply getting out and about find the location works well.
