A Contemporary Aged Care Community for Melbourne's South-East

Located in Melbourne's rapidly growing south-east corridor, Clyde North Terrace Care Community is a purpose-built residential aged care development designed to support comfort, connection and independence. Developed for Opal HealthCare, the three-storey facility provides 160 private resident rooms with ensuites, alongside a range of wellness, dining and lifestyle amenities that create a welcoming, home-like environment for residents. Designed by ClarkeHopkinsClarke and delivered by APM Group, the project reflects the growing demand for contemporary aged care communities that prioritise resident wellbeing, accessibility and quality of life.
