High Physical Support SDA | Two Independent Homes on One Title

31 Argyll St is a purpose-built SDA home designed to support participants who require High Physical Support. This is a thoughtfully designed, single-storey residence that delivers a balance of independence, privacy, and support, while still feeling like a comfortable and modern home.

This property is Two Independent Homes on One Title, meaning there are two fully self-contained living environments under one roof. Each side is designed to operate independently, making it ideal for participants who want separation, reduced noise, and greater control over their daily routines, while still having support close by when needed.

A Home Designed for Independence and Support

The layout has been carefully planned to create clear separation between participant areas, shared living zones, and support spaces. Each home includes two participant bedrooms, its own living and kitchen areas, and a dedicated Overnight On-Call room, allowing support to be present without impacting privacy.

At the centre of each home is an open-plan living, meals, and kitchen area that connects seamlessly to an outdoor alfresco space. This creates a natural flow through the home and makes everyday living feel easy and intuitive.

The inclusion of internal courtyards brings in natural light and provides a calm, private outdoor space that can be accessed safely and easily.

Participant Bedrooms

Private, Functional, and Built for Everyday Living

Each participant has their own private bedroom with a built-in robe and direct access to a fully accessible ensuite. These spaces are designed to feel like real bedrooms, not adapted spaces, with enough room for movement, equipment, and personalisation.

Bedrooms are designed with provision for ceiling hoists and reinforced structures to support future installation, ensuring the home can adapt to changing needs over time.

The ensuites include step-free showers and accessible layouts that support ease of movement, safety, and independence.

Kitchen and Living Areas

Open, Accessible, and Easy to Use

Each home includes a modern kitchen that connects directly to the living and dining area. The layout allows participants to stay engaged in everyday activities, whether cooking, relaxing, or spending time with others.

Kitchens include accessible design elements such as adjustable benchtops and clear space underneath for seated use, supporting a wide range of mobility needs.

Living spaces are open and uncluttered, with wide circulation areas that make movement throughout the home smooth and comfortable.

Overnight On-Call (OOA) Room

Support Nearby, Without Compromising Privacy

Each dwelling includes a dedicated OOA room positioned to allow support staff to assist when needed, while still maintaining clear separation from participant areas.

This design supports 24/7 care without making the home feel clinical or intrusive.

Outdoor Areas

Safe, Connected, and Easy to Enjoy

Both homes include private alfresco areas connected directly to the living spaces, creating a smooth indoor-outdoor transition. Pathways and external areas are designed with gentle gradients and step-free access, supporting safe movement throughout the property. The inclusion of internal courtyards and outdoor zones provides multiple options for relaxation, fresh air, and quiet time.

Accessibility and Design Features

Built for High Physical Support from the Ground Up

This home has been designed to meet High Physical Support SDA requirements, with features integrated into the design rather than added later. Key features include wider doorways, step-free access throughout, accessible bathrooms, reinforced walls for future supports, and provision for ceiling hoists. Consistent placement of switches, power points, and controls makes daily routines easier and more intuitive. Assistive technology provisions, emergency power backup, and nurse call systems are also included to support safety and independence.
