PHOTO: GEMMA SINCLAIRAfter more than 70 years’ ownership, Presbyterian Support Southland (PSS) is poised to sell its Gore retirement village Resthaven. PSS has confirmed a conditional sale and purchase agreement has been signed for the transfer of ownership of its Resthaven facility, which includes Hokonui House and the retirement village. Resthaven has been housing the elderly since 1954, when it opened in a two-storey house on the corner of Crombie St and Gore’s main street. The 60-bed care home facility provides rest-home and hospital-level care, and the retirement village consists of 23 dwellings.
