The City of Swan is invested in facilitating aged care services for our community and an over 55’s lifestyle village is planned for a site at 12 Elvire Street, Viveash.
It will deliver important aged care and independent living infrastructure to meet our community’s growing needs.
Our City is a place for everyone and our goal is to provide quality aged care for our diverse population of almost 150,000 people, of which 20 per cent are over 55.
The City is working towards securing an additional 1,050 residential aged care places for our community, which will be needed by 2036 to keep up with demand. Other projects include the Paradise Quays aged care development.
This site has had a scheme amendment to document some issues, including building setbacks and height for future redevelopment.
Following an expression of interest campaign, one of the proponents, the Aspen Group, have updated their offer which was conditionally accepted at Council's meeting on Wednesday, June 12, 2024.
To protect the rights of existing residents, Council resolved to include a requirement to enter into a residents agreement.
Aspen Group proposes to refurbish all existing units to create an over 55’s rental village.
Public advertising of the proposed sale closed on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, with no comments received. Settlement was on August 21, 2024.
Aspen immediately started refurbishment works including internal painting of the vacant stage three units and structural work on the stage one and two units.
