The Self Care units are made up of:

• 6 studio/bedsitter units

• 38 one bedroom units

• 16 two bedroom units

They are located at 36 Douglas Avenue Chatswood in 15 town houses each with their own garden, and a separate 8 floor tower building, each unit having 1 or 2 balconies overlooking Muston Park and Scott's Creek.

Recurrent fees for Self Care units are payable (in advance) to the Association each 28 days by the Resident, preferably by cheque or cash at the office or by mail. 

Recurrent fees are used towards operating expenses of the Village including maintenance, cleaning of common areas, buildings, gardens, water rates, communal laundries, security lighting and our Hostel emergency assistance call buttons for each unit.

Recurrent fees for the studio and one bedroom units attract rental assistance, added to your pension, and which reduces recurrent fees by nearly half - to approximately $65.00 per week. Two bedroom units do not qualify for rental assistance.

Current policy is that recurrent fees change in September each year, where Residents' consent is given prior to the end of the previous financial year.
