Project Summary:
The redevelopment of this site saw the demolition of one existing social housing dwelling and subdivision of the site into three allotments allowing the construction of two x twobedroom and one x three-bedroom social housing outcomes (rented to eligible tenants at up to 25 per cent of income).
All homes were architecturally designed and have been certified at Livable Housing Design Guidelines Gold Level and SDA Improved Liveability to accommodate tenants living with disability. All homes have been landscaped with drought-tolerant native plant selections and mulch to maximise water sustainability and minimise the requirement for maintenance. Each home has been fitted with reverse-cycle air conditioning and a 3.7kW solar photovoltaic system to minimise tenant energy costs.
