SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) Granny Flats are purpose-built, accessible living spaces designed for individuals with significant functional impairments or high support needs. These dwellings are a part of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia and provide a safe, comfortable, and independent living environment for eligible participants.
Unlike traditional granny flats, SDA Granny Flats are designed to meet strict accessibility and safety standards, ensuring residents can live with dignity while receiving the necessary support. Features may include wider doorways, step-free access, reinforced walls for grab rails, accessible bathrooms, and smart home technology to assist with mobility and daily tasks.
SDA Granny Flats are typically built on the same property as a primary residence, making them ideal for families who want to keep their loved ones close while providing them with independent living arrangements. They offer a cost-effective and flexible housing solution, allowing residents to maintain their autonomy while receiving informal or formal support as needed.
Funding for SDA housing, including granny flats, is provided by the NDIS for eligible participants. However, participants must meet specific criteria to receive funding, such as requiring specialized housing due to extreme functional impairments. By providing accessible and comfortable housing, SDA Granny Flats enhance the quality of life for individuals with disabilities. They promote independence, community inclusion, and long-term stability, ensuring residents have a safe and supportive place to call home while still being close to their families or support networks.
