Illoura Village redevelopment & expansion update

10 October 2024

Exciting progress is being made at our new Illoura Village residential aged care home in Chinchilla, with several key milestones taking shape as we approach the final stages of  construction.

In the last few months of 2024, we will see finalisation of the new building construction works, with the new Illoura Village being handed over to us at ‘lock up stage’. We will then coordinate the fitout of furniture and equipment for occupancy by residents in their new home by late February 2025.

Landscaping around the two central courtyards will begin in the new year, creating inviting outdoor spaces for residents. These gardens and seating areas will foster a connection to nature and encourage outdoor activities and social interaction.

As we complete the interior furnishings and prepare to welcome our first residents in February 2025, we will also begin demolishing parts of the original home to make way for car parking, internal roads and landscaping, that will connect back to parts of the original buildings on the site.

Our team is busy preparing transition plans for our residents to ensure everything is ready for them early in the new year. Additionally, we are in the final stages of designing phase two of the redevelopment, which focuses on repurposing the existing buildings to serve as better community hubs, including a wellness centre, café, gym, and day respite services. We look forward to sharing these designs with you as they are finalised.
