Independent living community designed around a central landscaped courtyard

Wesleycare Wynnum Apartments is the second stage of Wesley Mission’s high-needs residential care facility.

Cleverly designed on a tight site and co-located with Asher House, WWA offers five spacious, self-contained units for independent living.

The one-bedroom NDIS units achieved LHA platinum certification and are oriented to capture light, generous garden views and bay breezes.

Unique to the independent living units is the opportunity to access flexible outdoor space, proving increased connectivity to the natural environment and enhanced wellbeing.

Raised gardens and private terraces address the main boulevard to encourage interaction and shared ownership between residents, families, and carers.
