Putting people at the heart of retirement living

WITH more than 25 years of experience and 14 villages across Australia, Teman is proud to bring its people-first approach to retirement living to the Geelong region.

Nestled in the heart of Grovedale, The Grove by Teman is a welcoming over 55’s community offering the perfect blend of comfort, connection, and ease.

Teman specialise in independent living—creating communities where residents can truly enjoy the next chapter of life.

The focus is on providing a safe, maintenance-free lifestyle in a setting that feels both social and secure.

Whether looking for the ease of a maintenance-free home, the joy of new friendships, or simply a peaceful place to call your own, The Grove by Teman offers a flexible lifestyle tailored to each resident.

What makes Teman different is their hands-on approach. They’re not a city-based corporate making decisions from a distance—they’re present in the villages, listening to residents, understanding what matters, and making meaningful changes without delay.

That local presence is key to how they build strong, connected communities.

Managing Director, Jamie Sterland, knows village life from the ground up. Having started in maintenance before becoming a Village Manager, Jamie has spent decades getting to know the real needs of residents.

His experience has shaped the Teman model—built on trust, responsiveness, and genuine connection.

At The Grove by Teman, homes start from just $307,500—making it a great way to downsize and free up your lifestyle. It’s the perfect option for those looking to enjoy more time, flexibility, and independence in retirement.

The village features landscaped grounds, well-designed homes, and a warm, inclusive environment. Everything is designed to make life simpler—no more mowing lawns or climbing ladders. And yes, pets are welcome too.

With the safety and security of a like-minded neighbourhood, plus the flexibility to be as social or as independent as you like, The Grove by Teman offers retirement living the way it should be.

Visitors are welcome to see the village for themselves. To book a tour, contact Bree on 0472 878 749 or stop by 6-12 Matthews Street, Grovedale.
