Specialist Disability Accommodation

A Whole Home of Your Own

Most SDA means sharing a house with strangers. You get a bedroom of your own, and everything else belongs to everyone. We build two independent homes on one title: your own entry, your own kitchen, your own living room, your own bedroom and ensuite.Not a room in a shared house. Two independent homes on one title, each with its own kitchen, living room, bedroom and ensuite.

Two independent homes on one title. Simplified plan
Two independent homes on one title A simplified plan of the Robust home in our newest two-home design, from the endorsed plans for 14 Allen Street, California Gully, drawn with the street at the bottom. One building holds two independent homes on one title. At the rear, each home has its own living and dining area with a kitchenette, measuring 4.3 by 4.8 metres for Home A on the left and 4.2 by 5.4 metres for Home B on the right, and each opens through its own door to its own deck and private yard, a second way in and out besides the front entry. In front of those, each home has its own bedroom of 3.4 by 4.0 metres and its own ensuite. Each home is behind its own door off a shared hall, and its private hallway runs up the centre of the building beside a dividing wall between the two homes. Towards the street the plan continues either side of the shared entry: on Home A's side a kitchen with its own door outside, and an onsite overnight assistance room of 2.9 by 3.7 metres with its own ensuite and a desk; on Home B's side a laundry with store and linen, and a garage of 5.5 by 6.0 metres with internal access. Those support rooms and the entry are shared by both homes. A porch opens to the street. Behind the building the two homes' yards are separated by a fence.

The housing model

Share the Land, Not the Household

Typical group SDA gives you a bedroom of your own and makes everything else common property. Our two-home builds work differently: two independent homes on one title.

Each home has its own kitchen and living room. One neighbour, not four housemates.

This compares our side-by-side two-home builds. Some earlier builds are back to back instead: one front entry, with the rear home reached through the front home's living area. Most of our High Physical Support homes are shared homes for two or three participants. Service areas vary too: in the two-home builds the entry, breakout room, OOA room, laundry and garage are shared. Each listing says which kind of home it is and what's shared, and we'll send the floor plan.

Design categories

The Four SDA Design Categories

Your NDIS plan funds one of four design categories. Here's what each one actually means, and if you're not sure which is yours, send us your plan and we'll check.

Robust

Built to be resilient and hard to damage: reinforced linings and fixtures, laminated glazing, and acoustic treatment so noise doesn't carry. Secure, not institutional.

Suits people who have complex behaviours that may cause harm to themselves, others or property.

High Physical Support

Built for significant physical assistance: ceiling hoist provision, backup power, emergency communications and height-adjustable joinery, on top of full wheelchair access.

Suits people who have the most significant physical and medical support needs, and need help with most daily tasks.

Fully Accessible

Built so you can move through it independently: level entry, wide doorways, room to turn a wheelchair, a roll-in shower, and everything within reach.

Suits people who have significant physical impairment and can move around their home independently.

Improved Liveability

Built for a calmer, clearer home: good lighting and acoustics, clear sightlines, simple wayfinding and low-glare finishes, with reasonable physical access too.

Suits people who have a sensory, intellectual or cognitive impairment and benefit from a calmer home.

Moving in
