Aged Care – Ellenbrook (Ellen Gardens)

Project Overview

DAP has been engaged to Design and Construct 43 single level residential dwellings within LWP’s Ellen Gardens – Over 55’s development over a 2-3 year period.

Stage 1 will include the construction of 3 display homes to demonstrate the quality and style of homes that will be delivered within the precinct.

Ellen Gardens will provide high quality housing options for downsizers & over 55’s, which is both affordable and provides a hybrid between retirement living and group housing options.

The homes will be built in the traditional double brick construction methodology and will be designed to achieve LHA Gold as per the Liveable Housing Guidelines

DAP will work with LWP to design, value engineer and propose construction methodology that creates affordable housing for the target market.

In terms of interior design, three colour schemes have been selected by DAP and will be showcased in the display homes for purchasers to pick & choose from. The interior fittings, fixtures & selections were chosen by our Interior Design Coordinator to reflect LWP’s industrial theme. The palette incorporates materials such as red brick, timber, steel and aluminium to reflect the industrial theme, while introducing softer and lightweight materials such as timber battens, weatherboard and seamed metal cladding to provide softness, texture, shadow and light.

In addition, these homes will have access to solar panels and connection to a central battery storage system.

Construction started in August 2021
