Central Coast: Resident Focus
NDIS Participants We Support on the Central Coast
Edenbridge Living provides SDA on the Central Coast. We support NDIS participants with intellectual disability, autism, Down syndrome, acquired brain injury, cognitive impairment and complex support needs. Our homes cover all four design categories: Improved Liveability, Robust, Fully Accessible and High Physical Support. Every SDA Central Coast NSW home we build is single-storey. If you are the participant, our information for participants explains how it works from your side. To see where else we build, visit the Edenbridge Living home page.
Coastal Lifestyle on the Central Coast
Life on the Central Coast is built around the water. Wamberal Beach, the Terrigal Haven and the Brisbane Water foreshore are part of daily life. The pace is slower than Sydney. Streets are quieter. Newer streets tend to have flatter footpaths. That helps if you use a wheelchair or a walker.
Erina Fair is the main shopping centre, and Erina sits a few minutes from Wamberal. Gosford has the hospital, a rail station and a bus interchange. The coast also has disability services, sport clubs and community centres. Day programs run across Gosford and Erina. A resident can build a week around what is nearby.
The Central Coast sits between Sydney and Newcastle. The fastest train services to Sydney take a little over an hour. Check the current Transport for NSW timetable for today’s times. The M1 links the region to Sydney and Newcastle by road. That helps when an appointment is out of the area. That is the point of our coastal disability homes. A resident can take part in the region, day to day.
Where Our Central Coast Homes Are
Wamberal and the Gosford Region
Edenbridge Living has SDA homes in Wamberal and across the Gosford region. Our home there is a single-storey villa for one resident. The Gosford region is the service centre of the coast. Availability changes, so we do not publish live vacancy here. Our guide to ageing in place in an SDA home explains how we design for that.
Discover Central Coast LivingOur Central Coast Properties and Design Categories
Edenbridge Living builds two property types. Shared houses are three-bedroom, single-storey homes. Private villas are one-bedroom and self-contained. Every home is matched to one of the four NDIS design categories. If you are unsure which category applies, read our guide to the SDA design categories.
Healthcare and Support Services on the Central Coast
Housing works best when health care sits close by. The Central Coast has a major public hospital. Here is what surrounds our homes.
Gosford Hospital
Gosford Hospital is the main public hospital for the region. It is run by the Central Coast Local Health District.
Community Health Services
The Central Coast Local Health District runs community health teams across Gosford and nearby suburbs.
Allied Health and Therapy
Occupational therapists, physios, speech pathologists and psychologists all work across the Central Coast. Many will travel to a participant’s home.
GPs, Chemists and Everyday Care
Everyday care matters as much as hospital care. Wamberal, Terrigal, Erina and Gosford all have GP clinics, chemists, dentists and pathology collection points.
SIL Support Partners
SDA pays for the home. Supported Independent Living, or SIL, pays for the daily help inside it. We work with registered SIL providers such as Achieve Australia, Trusted Home Care and Aruma. Participants pick their own SIL provider.
Getting to Appointments
Gosford station sits on the Central Coast and Newcastle Line. Fast trains reach Sydney Central in a little over an hour.

Voices From The Community
Finding the right accommodation for my clients is always a top priority. Edenbridge Living has consistently provided homes that not only meet but exceed the client's needs. Their attention to detail in making the homes light, bright and comfortable for all, truly makes a difference in the lives of the people I work with.
Elisa Patterson
Support Coordinator
Moving into an Edenbridge Living home is a life-changing experience for my brother, who has an intellectual disability. The 1-bedroom villa gives him the independence he craved but still with support available and friends living next door. The Edenbridge team's dedication to their residents' comfort is evident in every detail of their homes.
Alexia
Support Coordinator
As a support coordinator, my primary concern is to find accommodation that not only ensures the safety and comfort of my clients but also enriches their lives. Edenbridge Living has been a remarkable partner in this regard. It's a relief to know that such a dedicated provider is just a call away.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SDA Central Coast NSW housing?
SDA Central Coast NSW housing is Specialist Disability Accommodation built for NDIS participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. Edenbridge Living provides single-storey shared houses and private villas in Wamberal and the Gosford region. Every home is purpose-built for accessibility and long-term living, and each one is matched to an approved NDIS design category.
Who is eligible for SDA on the Central Coast?
SDA funding is generally for NDIS participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. You usually need a functional capacity assessment and a housing needs assessment as evidence. The NDIA decides eligibility and funding, not the housing provider. Speak with your NDIS planner, support coordinator or Local Area Coordinator to confirm whether SDA suits your situation.
Where are Edenbridge Living's Central Coast SDA homes?
Our Central Coast homes are in Wamberal and the Gosford region. Wamberal is a quiet beachside suburb just north of Terrigal, moments from Wamberal Beach. The Gosford region is the service centre of the coast, with the hospital, the rail station and Erina Fair close by. We build in established residential streets, and every home is single-storey.
What is the difference between SDA and SIL?
SDA and SIL are two separate NDIS supports. SDA is capital funding for the specialist home itself, including property maintenance and the assistive technology included in the build. SIL funds the daily personal support delivered inside that home. Edenbridge Living provides the home. You choose your own registered SIL provider, and we coordinate with them.
How much does SDA cost on the Central Coast?
SDA funding sits under Capital Supports in an NDIS plan. It covers the specialist dwelling, property maintenance and the assistive technology included in the build. The participant pays a reasonable rent contribution, which is capped by the NDIA. Your plan and your circumstances set the exact figure, so check it with your planner or support coordinator.
How do I check for SDA vacancies on the Central Coast?
Contact Edenbridge Living to talk through current and upcoming homes on the Central Coast. Availability changes, so we do not publish it on this page. Tell us about the participant, their support needs and their preferred area, and we will explain which homes may suit. You can also browse our SDA vacancies page for Sydney and the Central Coast.
