Living & accommodation
Living options built around how you want to live
Three distinct pathways, all designed with privacy, independence and thoughtful matching in mind.
Our Geelong properties
Where our supported living happens
Availability, room arrangements, accessibility and suitability are confirmed individually with our team.
Ryrie Street Residence
An eight-bedroom home in East Geelong arranged as three separately accessed living sections, each with its own entry, living room and kitchen.
Charlemont
A modern accommodation option in the Charlemont area. Current availability, room arrangements, accessibility and support suitability are confirmed directly with the Solara team.
Clear costs
Accommodation, optional board and support are separate
Accommodation
25% of the Disability Support Pension plus 100% of applicable Commonwealth Rent Assistance
This is the rent arrangement. The exact current amount is confirmed during enquiry and recorded before move-in.
Optional board
35% of the Disability Support Pension where an agreed board package applies
Board is optional. Depending on the agreed package, it may cover utilities, internet, furnishings and weekly groceries. Inclusions are confirmed before move-in.
NDIS-funded support
Person-specific support under an approved plan
Funding may cover agreed disability support linked to goals and assessed needs. It does not pay rent, board or ordinary living costs.
Final costs, package inclusions and available funding are confirmed during the suitability process and set out in writing before any agreement. No dollar amount is fixed on this page because pension and Rent Assistance rates can change.
