The Gumleigh Gardens, Wagga Wagga project was built for the United Protestant Association (UPA) of NSW. The project involved the construction of a new 27 bed self-contained facility including kitchen, laundry, dining and lounge facilities.

Generally single storey domestic construction, the facility was fitted out with single bedrooms with full ensuites. To assist in maintaining a cosy habitable environment the facility is climate controlled by hydronic heating during cooler periods and a variable refrigerated flow air-conditioning system for the warmer months.

The building was designed with a central landscaped courtyard that contains tables and chairs, pattern paving and irrigated garden beds. The facility also included 3 smaller courtyards.
