Over-55s village is almost finished

A manufactured home park project in Springwood St, Umina, is almost finished, a little more than six months after construction commenced in March and nine months after Council approval in December.

The project, undertaken by owner aged care provider Peninsula Villages, “will see a total of 18 new modular apartments be added to the site which means 27 units in total”, said chief executive Mr Shane Neaves.

Tenants have been moving in over recent weeks, he said.

“Final touches include two more units to be dropped into the site as well as completion of landscaping and streetscape works.

“With a mix of one and two bedroom units, the over-55s village has all been planned with the latest ergonomic considerations and built to ensure compliance with both senior and disability measures,” he said.

“We are pleased to be able to provide local seniors with access to affordable housing,” he said.
