Mort Street offers apartment-style SDA in the Central West, giving participants their own apartment, front door, kitchen and living space — not just a bedroom in a shared house.
Mort Street gives participants something genuinely different in theCentral West: their own apartment, their own front door, their own kitchen and their own living space, not a bedroom within a shared house. That’s the real point of difference.
The building helps tell that story. A former TAFE, transformed into modern apartments, is an interesting hook that gets people curious — but it isn’t the whole reason people choose to live here. It’s the combination of greater independence and privacy, with experienced Allara support close by when it’s needed, that makes Mort Street the right choice for participants who want more control over how they live, for people with complex or physical support needs who want confidence their care is genuinely capable, and for anyone considering a move to the Central West.
