Welcome to IRT Kangara Waters

Set beside the peaceful shores of Lake Ginninderra in leafy Belconnen, IRT Kangara Waters offers relaxed lakeside living in one of Canberra’s peaceful suburbs. With parklands, walking tracks, local clubs and cafés all close by, it’s easy to enjoy life at your own pace.

Our modern apartments and villas are filled with natural light and take full advantage of the calming lake views. Open-plan layouts and private outdoor spaces make everyday living bright, easy and comfortable.

With an IRT aged care centre right next door, you’ll have the reassurance of support if your needs change, all while staying close to the community you know and love.

Join our Priority List and be the first to hear when villas become available, before we tell the wider public. We’ll also keep you in the loop with any village updates, and invitations to events. No pressure, just friendly updates when it matters.

Costs, Explained Simply

We’ve been helping people make the move into retirement living for over 55 years, so we know what questions come up, especially around costs. That’s why we keep things simple, transparent and upfront.

No hidden fees, no fine print, just honest info and a team ready to help. Here are the basics, and if you’d like to know more, you can dive deeper anytime. 

Prior to your move into the village, we will provide a detailed calculation of the costs you can anticipate for both entering and exiting the community.

If you’re not happy after moving in to your new community, we’ll refund your ingoing contribution within 90 days, minus rent for the time you stayed in the village.

You won’t pay any stamp duty on your home in an IRT retirement village in NSW, Qld or the ACT.

When you decide to leave the community, you won’t be asked to pay any expenses associated with the refurbishment, marketing or sale of your home.
