Scope is excited to announce more than seven brand new Supported Independent Living home builds in Melbourne’s eastern and western suburbs, with over 50 brand new rooms available!
Introducing Purpose-Built SIL Homes: A Step Towards Comfort and Independence
At Scope, we understand that finding the right home for a loved one with a disability is an important and deeply personal journey.
That’s why we’re excited to announce ongoing new home build collaborations with SDA providers in Victoria, offering over 50 purpose-built rooms that are designed with assistive technology and home automation.
These homes provide a safe, comfortable environment, empowering individuals to live more independently.
Whether you’re helping someone transition from an existing home or supporting a move from the family home to a more independent living situation, Scope offers a variety of options tailored to each individual’s unique needs.
Designed for Comfort, Built for Independence
Each home has been carefully designed to offer maximum comfort and flexibility. From spacious rooms to accessible bathrooms, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to support independence, while still providing the right level of care and support.
State-of-the-Art Assistive Technology & Home Automation
One of the key features of these new homes is the integration of cutting-edge assistive technology and home automation systems. These innovations make daily tasks easier, safer, and more manageable, so residents can focus on living life to the fullest. Whether it’s voice-controlled lights, smart appliances, or advanced safety features, these homes are built to offer the latest in convenience and security.
A Home That Grows with You
At Scope, we recognise that everyone’s journey is different. These homes are designed with flexibility in mind, so whether you’re supporting someone moving into their first independent space or transitioning from another care setting, we have options to meet your needs.

FAQs
What is a new build SIL home
A new build SIL home is a recently constructed, purpose-built property designed to support people with disability to live with daily assistance in a modern, accessible environment. New build properties are generally built to current accessibility and design standards and may include features such as wider doorways, step-free access, accessible bathrooms, and provisions for assistive technology.
What makes Scope's new build SIL homes different from older properties?
Scope's new build SIL homes are purpose-designed from the ground up for people with disability, rather than being converted or modified existing properties. They may feature contemporary accessible design, private bedrooms with ensuites, open-plan shared living areas, and modern assistive technology provisions. The exact features of each property will vary. Call Scope on 1300 472 673 or visit scopeaust.org.au to find out about specific homes currently available.
Who may be suited to a new build SIL home?
Scope's new build SIL homes may be suited to NDIS participants who have SIL funding included in their plan and whose support needs align with what is available at a particular property. Whether a specific home is the right fit will depend on individual circumstances, available vacancies, and compatibility with other residents. Call Scope on 1300 472 673 to discuss your situation and find out what may be available.
What support may be available in Scope's new build SIL homes?
Support in Scope's new build SIL homes is guided by each resident's individual NDIS plan and may include assistance with personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts, household tasks, and community access. The level of staffing — including whether overnight or 24-hour support is in place — will depend on each resident's assessed needs and NDIS funding.
