About Lovell House
Lovell House is located in the leafy bayside suburb of Caulfield, and is home to a close-knit community of 40 residents. Dedicated staff know each resident personally, and are on-hand to provide genuine around the clock care in a warm and supportive atmosphere that feels like home.
Small and boutique in feel, Lovell House is surrounded by landscaped gardens that are easily accessible throughout the year. Lovell also boasts a large central courtyard with raised flower beds and BBQ, and an array of warm and cosy indoor spaces for catching up with family and friends.
An engaging lifestyle program encompasses reflection groups, walks and choir practices, and each resident can enjoy a cake made by the on-site chef on their birthday.
