NDIS Specialist Disability Accommodation
Purpose-built homes that enable independence, dignity and inclusion.
New to SDA under NDIS?
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is a type of housing funded under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia. SDA funding helps eligible participants access purpose-built homes designed for people with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs.
At Able House, we provide NDIS-compliant SDA housing that enables participants to live with more freedom, security and community connection.
SDA is not just about meeting physical needs it is about creating homes where people with disability can thrive.
Why SDA Exists?
Traditional homes are not always suitable for people who need specialist support to live independently. SDA housing is designed with accessibility, assistive technology, safety features and support integration helping participants avoid institutional settings or unsafe living environments.
Through SDA funding, NDIS participants can:
- Live independently or with support
- Receive daily assistance in a stable home
- Maintain safety and dignity at home
- Choose where and with whom they live
Able House builds these homes with care, compliance and a deep respect for personal choice.
Who is SDA For?
SDA is available only to NDIS participants who:
- Have extreme functional impairment
- Require very high levels of support
- Have SDA funding approved in their NDIS plan
Examples of support needs may include:
24/7 Supported Independent Living (SIL)
High physical support requirements
Behavioural, sensory, or cognitive needs
🏠Types of SDA categories we support

These help match homes to the specific needs of each individual.
