Nightingale Housing is a not-for-profit organisation delivering homes that are socially, financially and environmentally sustainable. What began with a prototype by a handful of Melbourne architects has grown into a revolutionary housing model that responds to persistent problems of affordability and helps accelerate the pace of sustainable development toward a low-carbon future. There are now hundreds of current and future Nightingale residents joining their growing community in Melbourne, as well as in regional Victoria, Adelaide, Sydney and Perth.
As of December 2025, 664 homes have been delivered, with 28 homes under construction, and 499 houses in planning.
