RESIDENTIAL aged care provider, Warramunda Village, is only weeks away from completing the first of five new residential care suites that are part of a unique renovation being undertaken in the Saunders Street wing of the village.
The project is re-developing several underused spaces in the five-year-old wing and transforming these recreational spaces into five premium resident rooms. It’s the first step toward expanding the facility from 82 to 130 beds over the next five years.
The works form part of Warramunda’s 2030 Mater Plan and are a direct response to changing aged care expectations, focusing on delivering modern, home-like spaces that support comfort, safety and personalised care.
CEO John Clark said the project reflects growing demand for high-quality residential care and Warramunda’s commitment to leading change within the sector.
“Our focus is on making sure that when people do enter residential aged care, they are welcomed into a setting that feels like home,” Mr Clark said. “We’re moving away from purely recreational designs toward flexible, well-appointed accommodation that supports comfort, safety and dignity — especially for those with more complex needs.”
Construction is well underway in Saunders Street, Kyabram, with two of the five new rooms set to be completed by the end of July and the remainder by November. The rooms are being developed in areas formerly used for recreation and nursing services, now repurposed to provide greater benefit to residents.
The first facility to be completed under broader works was Warramunda’s new hairdressing salon, which officially opened June 20. Works will soon begin on the new Rockman Wing at Warramunda, forming one of the new residential suites expected to be delivered progressively by late 2026.
