A life well placed in Rockhampton

For Living Gems Rockhampton Sales Manager Victoria Dent, joining the Parkhurst community is more than a career move — it’s a personal choice. 

“In many ways, it feels like I’ve come home,” Victoria says of relocating to Rockhampton to lead sales at Living Gems Rockhampton, one of the region’s most exciting over 50s lifestyle resorts. 

Having grown up in the country, Victoria appreciates the balance Rockhampton offers. “I love the atmosphere of a city–country town,” she says. “You have everything you need close by — shopping centres, medical services and everyday conveniences — while still enjoying a relaxed lifestyle. Plus, you’re only a short drive to the beautiful eastern beaches.” 

With more than 25 years’ experience in property and project marketing, Victoria began her career in the Whitsundays, working across Airlie Beach and Hamilton Island, before moving to Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. Her portfolio includes premium developments such as the Hyatt Regency at Coolum. 

Now, she’s proud to be helping others discover the benefits of over 50s living in Rockhampton. 

“I’m incredibly excited about this new lifestyle community,” she says. “My husband and I have made the move north with a long-term plan. We’ll be living onsite and building our own home here at Parkhurst, so we can enjoy everything the community has to offer in retirement.” 

Living Gems Rockhampton is a master-planned over 50s lifestyle resort set across 27 hectares in Parkhurst. Once complete, it will feature 505 low-maintenance homes and more than $23 million in resort-style facilities, including a country club, swimming pools, wellness spaces, bowling alley and a wide range of social and sporting amenities. 

With Stage One now selling strongly, demand for quality over 50s living in Rockhampton continues to grow. Construction is also progressing, with more slabs being poured, frames and roofs on several homes, and the resort’s Summer House rapidly coming to life. 

Victoria, who has been part of the Living Gems family for over 13 years, says the company’s reputation is built on trust, quality and delivering on promises. 

“The quality of our homes and inclusions has always been incredibly important to me,” she says. “I’m proud to hand over the keys on settlement day, knowing our homeowners are receiving exactly what was promised.” 

If you’re looking for a vibrant, secure and low-maintenance lifestyle, Living Gems Rockhampton offers the perfect opportunity.
