Project Summary:
This development saw the demolition of one existing social housing property and the subdivision of the site into two allotments allowing the construction of one x two-bedroom and one x three-bedroom social housing outcomes. Both homes have been certified at Livable Housing Design Guidelines Gold Level and SDA Improved Liveability to accommodate tenants living with a
disability.
Both properties have been landscaped with drought-tolerant native plant selections and mulch to maximise water sustainability and minimise the requirement for maintenance. The homes have been fitted with reverse-cycle air conditioning and 3.7kW solar photovoltaic system to minimise tenant energy costs.
