A VISIONARY partnership is set to deliver a mid-density, wellness-focused retirement community on prime golf course land in Sydney’s western suburbs.
Pariter Pty Limited, a business specialising in the development and operation of community infrastructure, in collaboration with the Cumberland Country Golf Club, has announced a project which will enhance community and lifestyle, with approval granted for a new integrated retirement living community on the club’s land.
Located in Greystanes, the proposed development is situated on the northern end of the golf course, with approximately 440 metres of frontage to Old Prospect Road.
The milestone marks the next phase in a visionary partnership aimed at creating a community that blends active retirement living with the green, open spaces and social lifestyle offered by one of Cumberland Shire’s most respected golf clubs.

“This is more than just a development – it’s a shared commitment to delivering quality, wellness-focused living that enhances the legacy of Cumberland Country Golf Club,” said Vanessa Hammer, Development Director at Pariter.
“We’re creating a thoughtfully designed community where residents will enjoy the benefits of connected, active lifestyles, right at the heart of an established golf and social community.”
The approved plans feature 234 independent living units (ILU’s) and a wide range of community amenities including an indoor heated pool, gym, consulting rooms for visiting allied health professionals, a multi-purpose room, and a cinema.
The 18-hole championship golf course will be reconfigured and preserved as part of the proposal – ensuring minimal disruption to existing members while supporting long-term club sustainability.
“This partnership is about preserving the spirit of our Club while opening the door to new opportunities,” Dennis Clifford, President of Cumberland Country Golf Club, added.
“It secures a strong future for Cumberland Country Golf Club and ensures our legacy continues to serve not only our members, but also a new generation of residents who share our passion for community and healthy, active living.”
Enabling works on the golf course are set to begin mid-2025, with construction expected to follow in 2026.
