Living with MS often means adapting to changing physical needs, so our homes are designed to promote safety, energy conservation and independence, now and into the future. Choose the setting that suits you. Apartments give you a self-contained home close to transport and health services. Villas offer single-level living with more space and privacy in a quieter setting. Shared living gives you a private space of your own, alongside shared areas, onsite support and company close by. Browse them all in the home directory.
Improved Liveability (IL) caters to participants with sensory, intellectual or cognitive impairments. It offers subtle design features that can significantly enhance the liveability of those who may need that extra bit of support in their home. Some of these features include contrasting walls and doors, improved wayfinding with limited corridors, task lighting and visual assistance lines. The main outcome of Improved Liveability housing is to assist you to navigate around and promote overall safety and comfort.
The Fully Accessible (FA) design category caters to individuals with high physical impairment. The main focus of this design is to support mobility so you can move around your home with ease. The main features of FA SDA include wider doorways and corridors, flat flooring and open-plan layouts.
The High Physical Support (HPS) design category caters to individuals with high physical impairment and require a lot of support with daily activities. Similar to the FA design category, this category features open-plan layouts, step-free accessways and wide corridors. Additionally, other provisions such as ceiling hosts and even wider door openings are required to enhance accessibility, movement and comfort for you.
The Robust SDA design category caters to individuals with disability such as autism, mental health conditions and other psycho-social disorders. Homes under the Robust category are built with durable and strong materials that prevent injury, neighbourhood disturbances and the need for frequent maintenance.
Living with MS can mean your needs change over time. Our homes are designed to support greater independence and flexibility, with features that can adapt as your mobility and support needs change.
Because MS can change over time, these categories support higher physical needs and specialised equipment as your needs grow.
Because we provide the home and not the support, you are free to choose a provider who really understands MS, and change it without moving home. An Onsite Support Hub means help is close by when a relapse or a rough patch hits. Your daily support, such as personal care and help around the home, is funded separately through Supported Independent Living (SIL) and delivered by a separate provider.
We’re happy to recommend SIL providers, and through our Choice Collective you and your housemates shape how any shared support works. We’re 100% pet friendly and do not outsource. For how the home and the support fit together, see our SIL vs SDA guide.

Adults living with MS may benefit from Fully Accessible or High Physical Support SDA, depending on their individual needs. SDA funding and design categories aren’t based on a diagnosis alone, so there isn’t one housing option that’s right for everyone with MS. The most suitable category will depend on your functional capacity, mobility and day-to-day support needs.
Our homes include individually adjustable climate control, which matters because heat is a common MS trigger, along with energy-saving design: single-level or lift access, short paths between rooms, controls for lights, blinds and doors, so you use less energy day to day.
Yes. Our homes combine Improved Liveability, Fully Accessible and High Physical Support design, with provisions for future assistive technology, so features can be added as your needs change without you needing to move.
Yes, for eligible participants. SDA funding covers both shared and single-occupancy homes. Eligibility depends on how MS affects your functional needs. If you are unsure, use our eligibility calculator or speak with your Support Coordinator.
We specialise in the home itself (SDA), not personal support. Your daily support, such as personal care and help around the home, is funded separately through Supported Independent Living (SIL) and delivered by a provider you choose. We are happy to recommend SIL providers.
Because we provide the home and not the support, you are free to choose a provider who really understands MS, and change it without moving home.

Start with your NDIS plan and eligibility, then browse homes by city or check current vacancies. Enliven offers SDA across Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, and can help you find and plan for the right home.
