Sprott House is a not for profit, Charitable Trust Residential Care Rest Home and Hospital providing aged care for men and women.

Its Charitable Trust status means that all surpluses are returned to Sprott House for continued developments, staff education and the latest in necessary equipment.

Sprott House has been in existence since 1898, first established in Newtown as a home for girls. We moved to Messines Road Karori in 1900, and became a home for the elderly in 1951 offering a range of facilities and residential options. We are certificated by the Ministry of Health and have various contracts with the Capital and Coast District Health Board.

The buildings stand in .7538ha surrounded by established trees and mature gardens including roses, lavender and many other varieties of flowers as well as deciduous and evergreen trees. It overlooks the valley with glimpses of the harbour.

Sprott House offers a warm, caring and secure environment for residents and provides a home away from home when total independence is no longer an option and aged care is needed. We believe that people should remain as independent as possible and have developed our facilities based on this philosophy.

Our excellent social and rehabilitation programmes are managed in house by a team of caregivers and registered nurses.
