PROPOSED AGED CARE DEVELOPMENT

BEASLEY ST AND DREVERMANN ST, FARRER, ACT

The ACT Land Development Agency has engaged Purdon Associates to conduct an environmental, planning and development study of Block 2 Section 9 Farrer, fronting Drevermann St and Beasley St, near Yamba Drive.

The report is the first stage of the Government’s land release process to sell the land to Mandir Ashram Pty Ltd, a registered aged care service provider, for a development incorporating a nursing home, hostel and independent living units.

It is likely the site development will include up to 100 residential care beds (high and low care) in a large building of up to 4 storeys in the north-eastern part of the site, plus approximately 80 units including single storey ‘villa-style’ units, 2 storey units and 3 storey apartments.

The study will not result in detailed architectural designs for the future development.
