About the refurbishment
This is an exciting project for Onslow Gardens. We are undertaking a complete refurbishment to improve the living and working environment for our residents and our staff. The refurbishment includes updating all bedrooms – including ensuites as well as refurbishing all living areas, offices and the kitchen. We are also creating new quiet spaces and lounges for you too.
